Nice cruise

Nice way to be on the water at night. We were a group of 6 and had the boat to ourselves. Sadly, the boat arrived 6 minutes late and this was enough for us to miss seeing the "sparkle" of the Eiffel Tower. Boat captain drove the boat but did not point out any of the attractions, so be prepared to know what you are looking at.

We loved that it was Private with just our little group of friends. We brought baguettes and cheese and wine. The driver and mate were very nice and it was very comfortable.

Great tour for great pics!

It was a great ride down the River the tour guide was very informative. The pictures you can take are amazing. The one thing that I think could help this tour, is if there was a step stool in the pontoon. I was traveling with my mother and she could not get on the pontoon because there wasn’t a step stool.

Lovely private way to see Paris sunset cruise

Lovely private way to see Paris at sunset. We cruised down the Seine and saw lots of Paris highlights on a private pontoon. We brought our own wine and cheese and had happy hour while cruising down the Seine
