Board Bateaux Parisiens at the Eiffel Tower for a 150-minute dinner cruise with live music, an all-glass boat, and views of Notre Dame, the Louvre, Les Invalides, and the Eiffel Tower. Choose from several seating and meal packages, including vegetarian options and privileged window tables.

“Incredible experience booking the privilege service. Food was excellent and we had a private table by the window. Ambience and food were great and the music and live singer on board was an awesome way to celebrate an anniversary. Dependent on where you sit you may not be able to see certain landmarks. Overall 5/5 and a great special experience especially if you’re celebrating. Scallops dish, Beef filet with mashed potatoes, and tiramisu with ice cream were all great dishes. The most expensive meal experience I’ve had for two people in Paris but in my opinion it was well worth it and I’d book again.”

“This was an excellent tour with all the views from the sienna river. The food selection was not the best (we booked the standard option) maybe a little of love to the dishes will help a lot! The atmosphere was superb, the love music included a pianist and a violinist with a great selection of songs all the duration of the tour… the boat is in good shape as well… the experience overall was great. (The food could be better, but is an opinion, maybe others like it…)”

“I arrived at 7:05 PM on December 25, only to be told that the boat was full and I couldn't board. I was asked to wait until 9:45 PM instead. This was terrible. After waiting over 20 minutes, they finally allowed us to board, explaining that their website had malfunctioned and caused overbooking, leaving them with no other choice. However, right after giving this explanation, they forced us off the boat again, and their attitude was very poor. We had to wait in the cold wind for so long, yet we received no compensation, no sincere apology, and no immediate refund.”

14.Seine Dinner Cruise, Eiffel Tower Access and Moulin Rouge Show

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 2,310 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $483

Spend one Paris evening on a three-course Seine cruise, the Eiffel Tower’s second floor, and Moulin Rouge’s Féerie show. The $483.99 package includes transport between stops and Champagne, but seating, queues, add-on costs, and late show times require careful planning.

“We were very disappointed in the transportation for this tour. The tour itself was great as far as the dinner cruise,, Eiffel tower and Moulin Rouge show. When I made the reservation the show was to be at 10pm. However, we were moved to an 11:30 show at the Moulin Rouge due to being booked on a tour bus of the city of Paris. We had already had a tour of the city and this was just being duplicated. I would suggest that when you provide transportation for your tours that you dedicate a bus just to the attractions that are booked and not a city tour.”
