It was so nice but the food can be better.

We thoroughly enjoyed this dinner cruise experience. The views were beautiful! We felt like it went so fast, and wanted to stay and cruise along the river longer. The food and wine were good, and I think it was definitely worth paying extra for the steak. Overall, it was a great experience that I would recommend!

Lovely way of exploring the city
Viewing paris from the river with a dinner was a great (and very romantic) way of exploring the city! The food was good, and the staff very friendly. As with most things in Paris, they do try to make as much money as possible (for example, if you want to sit near the window, you pay extra, even when there is enough space). But they were very clear in explaining the costs (which wasn’t the case for all places in Paris!), which we appreciated. Overall we would recommend taking a river cruise including dinner, it was lovely :).

Lovely dinner cruise to celebrate my cousin's birthday. The staff was friendly and accommodating to our requests. The ambiance and the food was great! We got to sail by the Eiffel Tower as it sparkle and that was magical.

Well organized. Staff were very good. A nice sized boat. Small enough that it felt intimate.

Great experience, good food, service and value for money!
We really enjoyed this experience, our group age ranges 13 to 67, service and food was very good and the staff were friendly and attentive. Great views of the Eifel Tower from the boat and Paris by night is wonderful! I would book with this company again.

This was absolutely wonderful. The food , the atmosphere and the whole experience. It is one of the cheaper cruises but we had no complaints.
Well worth it and so glad we had the experience to see such beautiful sites all lit up with wonderful food.

good enough for a romantic night, but dont expect too much.

Food just good enough.
They tried to be corteous, but the lack of manpower was showing.
We took the 21h trip, where you really dont see much because of the dark.
We were quite angry when the boat that we booked was changed, with no warning. Not because of the boat itself but because we were waiting on the agreed spot for a long time. By luck we asked around and avoided missing the boat.

Overall, the trip was worth the money. Something that was not mentioned in advance - To sit at a table by the windows we had to pay an extra 10 euros per person, although the capacity was only about 30% occupied and there was room for everyone to sit around the windows.

Highly recommend this river cruise!
We had a wonderful experience on this dinner cruise. It was one of the only ones with availability (we booked last minute) and was much cheaper than the others so I was a bit worried that it wouldn’t be that great but I’m glad to say that was not the case. The food was very good, the wine was excellent, the staff were friendly and efficient, and the sites were amazing. The boat itself was clean and well maintained and I like that it was a smaller one. It felt more cozy and intimate compared to the big ones we saw along the way. This was definitely the highlight of our trip and I’m so glad we did it!

bonjour,
nous avons passé un bon moment, même si dans l'ensemble la salle est bruyante, donc pas évident pour s'entendre dans ce brouhaha.
De plus, je n'avais pas compris qu'il n'y aurait pas d'eau servi à table, de façon systématique et surtout que ce serait payant, 9€ tout de même pour une bouteille d'un litre. tous le monde ne boit pas que du vin !
les serveurs étaient agréables sans plus.

Dans l'ensemble un peu déçus

En arrivant, nous avons patienté au moins 15 min avant de pouvoir monter. L'accueil fut poli et courtois. Une fois sur le bateau, on nous a installé à une table au milieu de la salle (donc pas de vue pour nous). Le bateau était extrêmement bruyant, dommage...

Le service était super, les serveurs sont très chaleureux, souriants et appliqués. L'entrée était très bonne (3 petits amuse-bouche différents). Le plat était passable et pas très chaud (on peut comprendre, vu que la cuisine se fait sur un bateau). Nous avions demandé 2 verres de vin pour le plat, avant le service, que nous avons eu au milieu du plat. Le dessert n'était pas du "fait maison" et beaucoup trop sucré. La vue est sympathique : c'était le but du diner, même si nous n'avions pas de vitre. Heureusement qu'il y a une terrasse à l'extérieur (nous n'avons pas trouvé de cendrier pour information).

À la fin du repas de la musique est passée dans une ambiance chaleureuse, dommage qu'il n'y ait eu que 2 chansons françaises... (cela reste quand même touristique, des classiques français sont donc attendus). La musique aurait pu être mise en fond sonore sur toute la durée (cela calmerait peut-être les bavardages trop bruyants de tous).

Conclusion : Très bon service (merci à eux), trop bruyant, cuisine moyenne, jolie vue, dans l'ensemble un peu déçus.

Une croisière conforme à nos attentes. Même si le rythme du service est rapide, la prestation est de qualité. La navigation au delà de la tour Eiffel permet de découvrir des lieux nouveaux.

dîner-croisière sur la Seine

Dîner-croisière sur la Seine conforme à la commande.
Pas de mauvaise surprise.
Horaires respectés.
Petit bémol: peu de monuments éclairés et le nom des monuments devant lesquels nous passions n'était pas cité.
Bonne soirée, personnel sympathique.

La visite de Paris et la promenade en péniche très sympathique, cependant le repas pas top du tout. J'ai trouvé qu'il manquait de gour dans le risotto et le dessert pas fameux.

Great boat with a nice bistro outside. You can switch between dining inside with panorama windows or standing outside with your drink. Excellent food. We and the children loved it.

An unforgettable sensory and emotional experience.

Ah, the bistronomic dinner on the Péniche Ivoire! What an unforgettable experience for food lovers and those seeking conviviality! Picture yourself surrounded by tranquil waters, as the soft glow of twilight caresses the waves. The Péniche Ivoire, a true floating gem, provides the perfect setting to enjoy a cuisine that combines refinement and accessibility, harmonizing beautifully with the stunning surroundings.

Bistronomy, an innovative concept that highlights quality cooking in a relaxed atmosphere, finds its true meaning here. Each dish invites you to explore new flavors, blending tradition and modernity in a delightful way. The chefs, true artisans of taste, rely on local and seasonal products to create delicious dishes that please the palate while respecting the environment. The freshness of the ingredients, paired with exceptional craftsmanship, offers a unique culinary experience.

But it’s not just the gastronomy that makes this moment a magical interlude. The atmosphere aboard this barge is infused with warmth and friendliness. It’s a place for conversation and laughter around a carefully set table, all accompanied by soft music. Guests are gently swayed by the peaceful rhythm of the Seine, creating a romantic and intimate setting perfect for couples, while also providing a warm backdrop for reunions among friends.

In summary, a bistronomic dinner on the Péniche Ivoire is much more than just a meal: it’s a sensory and emotional experience, an ode to gastronomy that celebrates the joy of good food in an enchanting setting. It’s a moment to be savored and cherished in our most precious memories.
