Great trip, I was a bit concerned that taking the boat at night we would miss some sites but we did not. I enjoyed the trip.

the tour is perfectly fine. It takes you up and down the river for just over an hour which is plenty. It goes from the louvre to the eiffel tower and provides a brief commentary of every landmark along the way.
Some improvements would be better restrooms, improve the tannoy so that it can be heard when seated outside and consider providing a snack bar

Enjoyable cruise, but hard to hear the "tour guide" while outside.

Overall it was a smooth cruise and nice to see Paris from the river.
It was crowded on board; the commentary was in a few languages, much more then the 3 that were mentioned when I booked the cruise and therefore difficult to follow.
The English commentary started only 15 min after we departed.

It was great but the toilet was disgusting. You could see lots of things the Eifel Tower etc.
When you are at the top you wave to everyone and cheer. The staff was great . But there wasn't a bar 🍸
so it was just seats.

Pleasant and long enough time on the river. The boat is really big but the seats are comfortable and we can get up and walk around. I bought the tickets online and it was worth it. Very easy to find the starting point.

Relaxing and informative
I’m easy and relaxing, way to see the city, sound quality of the description in multilingual isn’t good, but once you get used to it, you can listen to it and taking the sites, a very different view, particularly of the repairs at Notre Dame.

We intentionally selected four seats on the upper rear deck so that we could have the least obstructed views of the city during the boat cruise. That being said, many other passengers on the boat blocked our views by standing directly in front/beside us. There are only so many times you can politely ask someone to step aside; I think there needs to be a representative from the boat tour to remind people take their seats.

Lights of Paris
We took a late evening cruise and it was lovely. We had purchased the skip the line tickets so boarding was easy. The cruise was about an hour and was narrated in a variety of languages. We had initially planned to do the cruise the previous evening but a problem with our accommodations prevented us so it was really wonderful that the tickets were not for a particular day and time and gave us some flexibility.

My go-to Paris activity
The evening Seine River Cruise is one of my favorite activities when visiting Paris. The boat ride is long enough to be able to see the highlights along the Seine and not get bored. The audio guide identifies the monuments along the banks.

Easy to buy, easy to use
We bought the tickets just 2 days before we wanted to enter. Tickets were easy to buy and easy to use. Recommended! Please note that the boat is very busy, if you want a top floor seat, you have to be very early or very late (and catch the next boat). The cruise is fun and relaxing

An ode to the unparalleled beauty of Paris, not to be missed.

Ah, the Seine riverboat cruise! What an iconic experience of Parisian beauty, blending the timeless charm of the Seine with the architectural splendor of the capital. Aboard these elegant vessels, visitors are invited to discover Paris from a unique perspective, gliding slowly over the serene waters while admiring prestigious landmarks like the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame, and the Louvre Museum.

These river cruises serve as true windows into French culture, offering a narrative journey that unfolds the city’s history, secrets, and legends. The commentary captivates passengers, revealing the fascinating stories hidden behind each bridge and quay. There’s something magical happening here, a blend of traveler excitement and the tranquility of the flowing river.

Whether with family, friends, or on a romantic outing, a boat cruise is an essential activity, especially on beautiful days when the sun reflects its golden rays on the water. The light of sunset creates an almost cinematic atmosphere, making this experience even more unforgettable. One can also enjoy a lunch or dinner cruise, a delightful way to combine gastronomy with sightseeing.

Popular among both locals and tourists, this mode of exploration resonates with the French art of living. The riverboats perfectly embody the symbiosis between the past and the present, uniting generations of admirers of the City of Light. In summary, a Seine riverboat cruise is an invitation to wonder, an ode to the unparalleled beauty of Paris that leaves no one indifferent.
