People standing up won’t let you enjoy the ride or see anything
The seine ride itself is magnificent however the way the passengers is managed is not very good. Everyone wants to go upstairs and it gets incredibly crowded. Lots of people are just standing up and do not let see the people who are sitting down which is terrible. I believe once everyone upstairs is sitting no one else should be able to go upstairs and they should find a place downstairs so that everyone can see

I recommend buying tickets a minimal 3 hrs in advance if doing it online. We purchased our tickets approx 90 min before they didn’t show up. We can call and wait 20min on hold before speaking to someone. Although the we a had a reservation email they would not accept it at the wharf until our tickets arrived.

Boat trip
We had a really nice boat trip on the Seine, the commentary was very informative, as it was a very hot day it was very helpful that we could fill up our water bottles before we went on board, the only negative thing was that they wouldn’t let us refill them after the trip.

Boat was lovely went at twilight and the dark with lit buildings was nice. Bit of a scrum to get on pard and not especially fun queuing with no info in the cold. But once on board we sat inside and popped out every now and then. Audio tour wasn't up to much but sights were better.

Evening Cruise on the Seine

A lovely evening cruise on the Seine. Very informative and a great way to admire Paris’s main attractions.
Definitely worth it and reasonably priced.

Excellent way to see some of the major sites when only in Paid for a few hours ... and in the middle of a heatwave! Booked online, walked straight into the boat, plenty of space and even managed to find a shady spot on the deck!

The audio guides around the boat didn’t all work, so whilst we got to see a few things, we missed half the experience which was disappointing.

Lovely experience

Easy to book online and directions easy to follow once in Paris. Straight forward download of tickets onto a mobile device (even for me!)
Cruise was a highlight of our trip for me weather was on our side and was able to see everything while travelling along the river. Staff were polite and the voiceovers were instructive for each building. Would highly recommend

it was a nice ride , just long enough, the guide gave some information on the sites…. sometimes you are just a bit too far away to really see what you are looking. at. but for the price, it’s a good value

Hello everyone!
In August we had a visit to our grandson in Paris.
Thanks to company "Come to Paris", we planned and had a wonderful time...
All issues were resolved very quickly. Managers answered without delay, offered us different options for events.
I recommend this company for cooperation!
I wish them success and advancement in business!
Sincerely,
Yurii Sokolov,

Skipped the line

We booked the Bateaux Parisiens Cruise Tour. Booking was really quick and easy. We managed to buy the tickets right at the lastminute, skipping both the queue at the automated ticket station, and the queue of other cruisers who'd bought tickets there.
The tour itself was a good way to see the Notre Dame, but unfortunately the audio guide was working intermittently which meant we missed most of the narration, meaning that some of the value was lost.

Booked a Seine river cruise on Bateaux…
Booked a Seine river cruise on Bateaux Parisienne in advance. E-ticket has flexible date & with it we were able to skip the line. Cruise was excellent. Easy booking and discounted ticket- we saved €5. Highly recommend.

At first we were nervous to purchase…
At first we were nervous to purchase tickets through an on line service, especially since we were from another country with limited access to the Paris events that we wanted to attend. However, we quickly learned that “Come to Paris” is a safe, secure, and professional organization that can be counted on.

A cruise on the Seine, an unforgettable odyssey.

Ah, a cruise on the Seine is an experience that invites contemplation and discovery of the wonders of Paris from a new perspective. Sailing on its waters is like diving into the heart of the history of our beautiful capital, while being gently rocked by the soft movement of the waves. Each boat ride is an invitation to rediscover iconic monuments, such as the majestic Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Musée d'Orsay, and the Eiffel Tower, which delicately reflects in the waters.

Embarking on a cruise means escaping the hustle and bustle of Parisian life, accompanied by insightful commentary that brings to life the fascinating anecdotes of these historic facades. The Parisian boats offer a unique and enriching perspective, where every bridge and every quay whispers tales of a glorious past. Whether you’re an art lover, a history enthusiast, or simply in search of a romantic stroll, there’s something for everyone.

And what about the nighttime cruises, where the city lights shimmer on the Seine, creating a magical atmosphere? It’s a living painting that unfolds before our eyes, a dance of lights that transforms Paris into a waking dream. Evening cruises are a special time to savor a refined dinner while gliding silently along the quays, admiring the shadows of trees and the silhouettes of passersby.

In summary, a cruise on the Seine is more than just a simple outing. It’s a true odyssey into the heart of the City of Light, a communion with art and history, leaving unforgettable memories for all who have the chance to experience it. So, let yourself be tempted, and see Paris like you’ve never seen it before.
