- Tips
Some cities are best discovered on foot. Paris is best felt from the water.
Step aboard a scenic Seine River cruise and watch the city reveal itself slowly, monument after monument, bridge after bridge. From the river, Paris feels different: softer, wider, more cinematic. The crowds fade into the distance, the skyline opens up, and the city’s most famous landmarks appear from one of their most beautiful angles.
With this flexible cruise experience, you can choose the option that best fits your Paris day. Select Bateaux Parisiens for a departure near the Eiffel Tower, or choose Bateaux Mouches for a departure from the Pont de l’Alma area. With regular departures between 10:00 AM and 10:00 PM, you can enjoy Paris in the morning light, during a golden afternoon, at sunset, or as the city begins to glow in the evening.
As your boat glides along the Seine, admire the monuments that have made Paris unforgettable: the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, Notre-Dame, the Musée d’Orsay, the historic bridges, and the elegant riverbanks listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Whether it is your first time in Paris or a moment you want to experience again, this cruise is a simple, beautiful way to feel the soul of the city.
Choose your port. Choose your time. Choose your company. Then let Paris do the rest.
