Description

Explore the City of Lights with a quintessential Seine River Cruise in Paris! Choose from a variety of daily departure times to suit your sightseeing schedule, and then check in for your cruise near the Eiffel Tower. Hop aboard a popular Bateaux Parisiens riverboat, and soak up the passing sights of iconic attractions like Notre Dame, the Louvre and the Musée d’Orsay. Glide beneath beautiful historic bridges, including the famous Pont Neuf. Even the riverbanks of the Seine are a sight to behold and have been collectively designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Along the way, a prerecorded audio guide provides commentary on the history and legends of Paris. The boat will turn around after about half an hour and cruise back up the opposite bank for a scenic and leisurely introduction to the magic of Paris.

Seine Boat Tour

If you buy tickets on line please be sure to download the actual ticket prior to arrival as data service is a little slow at the port probably due to mass number of people on phones. Also, if you aren't 30 minutes early the best seats are gone. You might want to know whether or not the boat ride was worth the price or not. That depends on whether you are otherwise bored to tears and needed a way to pass the time.

Scammers

We couldn't get on the tail cruiser, it was impossible to finish the queue and it hadn't closed already. So they sell so many tickets if it's unfeasible for all those people to do the tour.

A good walk, but sending tickets without respecting the deadlines and boarding to better organize

1. The most Good ride, which could have gone to the Statue of Liberty on the one hand, the National Library of France on the other. Relevant comments. 2. Less - Tickets sent the same morning and not 24 hours before as promised by the description - Queues / boarding to fluidify, toilets to keep cleaner: although very numerous, each of your customers pays; they are not livestock!

Bad service, wasted tickets

Be sure to check your tickets very early. We were sent a bad file and they did not respond to fix it. We were not able to use the tickets and they have not responded for a refund.
