Paris Seine Cruise: Iconic Landmarks & Enchanting Narration

We left around 5.45pm which was an excellent time at this time of year (Oct) to capture the sights and then return to see the tower illuminated and flashing in the dark. We got great photos. Wear warm clothes if you’re sitting atop as it’s chilly. It’s warm down below. Boat was full and there was commentary in English and several other languages which was good. We did have to queue to get on. If you want a space stop get to the front of the queue.

This is enjoyable and relaxing and some great views of famous monuments. There was audio in a number of languages -- I'm not a huge fan of the same thing being repeated over and over in each language - but in this case we couldn't hear it at all - we were on the upper deck and it just wasn't audible - apparently it was clear if you were inside. There is a QR code to download audio, but it is a map that will alert you when passing things and you can play some facts. It was okay, but not quite what I expected. We did have a nice location until one family decided to use it for photograpghs and blocked our view on almost every monument - not taking a photo and moving back, literally taking multiple poses and they could see us trying to get photos too - really, really rude - and started to seem deliberate when it was repeated at every point.

Such a peaceful ride and ending to our time in Paris. We went right after sunset which was nice before dinner. Best view is the top of the boat for sure. We were fine with a windbreaker jacket.

It’s a big crowded boat with very limited commentary. You’re supposed to be able to download an audio guide on your device, but that never worked for us. My biggest issue is with the Viator app for this booking. I couldn’t access my tickets - it was just this endless loop of the app telling me to use the confirmation email to get the tickets, which took me back to the Viator app, which then said to go back to my email. Really frustrating. I had to go to the counter with a confirmation number to get the tickets.

Great experience - smooth check in process. I went around 5:30-6 PM. It was a good time as I waited 15-20 mins to get on the boat.

This was a great little tour and nice way to see the tower. Leo was our guide and was efficient and gregarious! I would recommend

Very nice trip, fast queing line, good and smiling service. Did not hear outside, better seat cover when raining. Should have been possible to buy rain poncho or seat cover.

This was a nice ride on the Seine with adequate commentary. The views were best on the upper deck, but it was nice to have the heated indoor area to warm up on a cool day. It wasn’t too crowded, probably because it was a cool and cloudy day, so it was easy to move around the boat and there were plenty of seats available.

We enjoyed this hour long cruise down the Seine as dusk turned to evening. It was lovely watching the city transform to night, with jewel being the Eiffel Tower! After a day of non stop walking, taking a hour to sit back and enjoy the views from the Seine was delightful!

To arrive early as it is very popular; to bring a camera and choose to cruise at sunset. The Eiffel Tower is simply brilliant at night.
