La faire une fois le soleil couché. Les bâtiments et pont sont éclairés. Il faisait très chaud, et c'était incroyable de voir toutes les personnes en bord de Seine occupées à chanter, danser, prendre un verre.. Le seul souci: le temps d'attente pour l'embarquement. Bcp bcp de monde. Au moins 45 min de file.

Es un experiencia muy linda, recomendada para todo aquel que vaya a Paris, y que no tenga mucho tiempo para recorrer. Había leído comentarios sobre largas filas y espera, pero en lo personal, la entrada fue más rápida de lo que esperaba :)

This was my first time in Paris. I came with 6 family members and was nominated to book the excursions. This was by far the best as we got to see all of the beautiful sights of Paris lit up along the Sienne!! Thank you!!

Très bonne expérience malgrés la pluie. Service à bord très agréable ( toilette, café, eau). 4 étoiles car le guide audio à parfois rencontré quelques problèmes. Mention spéciale à la guide présente au centre du bateaux, très agréable et très doué dans les 3 langues ( français anglais espagnol).

Last week

I booked a Seine River cruise through Headout and had a great experience overall. The booking was quick and easy with instant mobile tickets, and boarding was smooth. The cruise offered beautiful views of Paris landmarks like the Eiffel Tower, Louvre, and Notre-Dame, especially at sunset/evening when the city looks amazing from the water. It was a bit crowded, so getting a good spot on the upper deck required arriving early. Overall, it’s a simple and memorable way to see Paris from a different perspective and worth doing for first-time visitors.

Aboard a Bateaux Parisiens glass canopy boat, discover the magic of Paris in the evening with a 1-hour cruise along the Seine.

With multiple cruise timings and a validity of 6 months from the date of purchase, this ticket gives you the flexibility to plan your holiday with ease.

See the Eiffel Tower glimmering and learn interesting facts about other Parisian landmarks from your audio sets available in 14 languages as you glide along the Seine.

It was freezing inside. I had to get a blanket. Server pushed champagne and i don't drink. Brought drink i didn't want and was shocked that i didn't drink it at the end. I have a gluten sensitivity and my husband doesn't eat fish. We couldn't eat the appetizer. So she brought nuts but it was just peanuts. Too loud. People talking, singer was amazing but too loud. You need more food allergy alternative foods

Magical views of Paris under the starry-lit sky

After the sun sets, make your way to the Port de la Bourdonnais, located at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, and embark on a magical 1-hour nighttime cruise along the Seine River. The boats proceed east on the Seine, heading in the direction of Notre Dame Cathedral. This section travels by well-known locations including the Musée d'Orsay and the Louvre Museum, both of which have stunning nighttime illumination. Boats may slow down further along to admire the golden flame of the Statue of Liberty replica on Île aux Cygnes and the shimmering Pont Alexandre III bridge.

You will then make a 180-degree circle at Notre Dame Cathedral on Île de la Cité island before returning west to the Eiffel Tower. The elaborate Hôtel de Ville, the famed Conciergerie, and the Île Saint-Louis island, known for its 17th-century architecture, are a few more of the most famous landmarks in Paris that are visible.

Sit back and relax

Your flexible ticket allows you to board the cruise anytime you’d like within operating hours - meaning you don’t have to worry about any logistics! As you cruise down this UNESCO-listed Paris river, enjoy exhilarating moonlit views from the boat’s terrace and exterior passageways and learn about the city with live commentary via your complimentary audio guide.
