If you have decided to discover Paris by boat, good news, it's an excellent choice!

To enjoy your one-hour excursion on the Seine, boarding is at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. Turn your back on the Iron Lady, cross the Quai Branly and approach the Inéa Bridge (Pont d'Iéna). Go down the stairs to the right sidewalk. You are in the Port de la Bourdonnais! Boat trips leave from deck n°3.

As you board the Bateaux-Parisiens cruise on the Seine, you will have the choice of taking an audio guide and choosing your language (commentaries in 14 languages are available). An audioguide suitable for children makes this sightseeing cruise a fun activity to do with the family in Paris!

The tour of Paris on the Seine offered by the Bateaux Parisiens is non-stop. It is a circuit of approximately one hour which begins and ends at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. If you were thinking of using the boats as a shuttle service between various places to see in Paris, we advise you to opt for the Batobus, a little more expensive but which allows you to hop on and off and resume your cruise at strategic points of the Seine.

You can bring a snack or your picnic and enjoy your excursion on the Seine for a lunch break. Note that many fast food kiosks are available at the Port de la Bourdonnais before or after your tour. For those who want to take the Seine cruise experience to the next level, consider the Seine River dinner cruise or Bateaux Parisiens lunch cruise options.
