Really easy way to see all the best bits of Paris! The commentary was good enough, duplicated in multiple languages, so you don't have to know French or English only. The pace of the session was nice and over an hour session just flew by!

Not having my tickets available after purchase was problematic, the tickets never loaded even after I download the headout app. Having to wait till the day of the event to get our tickets was not good. Also, I wasn't given a chance to select a start time for the cruise. The fact that we had flexible tickets should have been made clear in my email confirmation because all the FAQs harped on being ontime or you'll forfeit your tickets. Instead, my email confirmation only showed the open time which caused confusion.

The ride went very well. What's more, the weather was on our side. Definitely worth doing again and recommending.

We had bought tickets online and didn't know we had to still get a QRCoded ticket at berthside. The trip on the Seine was good, but I was disappointed that we did not go past Notre Dame. A worthwhile experience all the same.

The boarding location was easy to spot. We did not have to check schedules, just walked to the entrance and with very little waiting time we were able to board. Plenty of places to sit.

The ticket was extremely unclear on what times it could be used. We went on a different evening cruise because we went straight to location. The address on the ticket didn't take us to the right place. Why is a voucher necessary and why is that at a different location than where you scan to ride. The voucher and ticket process was confusing.

Loved the time spent going about and got enough time to add the sights. Saw the Eiffel tower lit up. But the seats upstairs were closed always. So everyone crowded at the bottom and especially outside. Why not remove the seats from upstairs to not give false expectations to the customers.

Very pleasant cruise. Thanks to the boat driver for taking the time to stop in front of the Statute of Liberty for photos.

The cruise was very interesting, although if you were siting outside, you couldn't hear anything of the guide. As for the ticketing, the code that you sent me, for the discount, it was not valid, and this happened twice, so I felt that you fooled me.

Spectacular. It is worth taking it at 20:00. They make a short stop when the light show of the Eiffel Tower is on.

Too crowded, too many people onboard, the way the chairs were facing the windows mare ot difficult to see the sight. When it started to rain not all people fitted inside and thusbothing could be seen outside. I don't recommend you.

The cruise itself is great but the experience could be better if it were handled more professionally. It suffers from oversubscription that runs the risk of being like a cash cow with a reduction in service quality. For example, it was not clear where the entrance was with a box outside the main wharf. The emailed instructions were good but not immediately to hand. There were no staff to manage crowd control at the entrance and seasoned tour operators came in and moved their own guests ahead of those already waiting. The platform needs to significantly improve passenger crowd control. There was only a couple of staff checking tickets on the wharf but not a soul around to manage the crowds. The waiting area had no barriers, so people tended to make their own rules how to gather (ie in a big crowd surge formation with a rush of people being hurt or crushed). There were no staff available to manage passengers on the boat itself (other than to drive the boat). Many people resorted to saving a spot for themselves against the side of the vessel, meaning that those seated couldn't see anything unless they also stood up and tried to look over or go to the side rail, creating a potentially hazardous situation - there's no one to look out if anyone was to go overboard. Audio was a rather vanilla recording that played back as though on a ghost ship with a clear absence of staff to save money and maximise profit. This all detracts from what is an amazing experience.

The boat was clean and staff friendly. Good value for money. Commentary was quite comprehensive too. Would recommend.

The Seine River cruise is a must-do experience in Paris! The view is fantastic. We chose the 5:30 p.m. shift and it was a perfect choice because we passed under the Eiffel Tower just as it began to shine.

Perhaps indicate in the reservation that "tickets" are to be collected at the cash desk. Review the verbose and incorrect telephone advert. I was only able to book online at the last minute. Clarify that the state of the flood can change the itinerary, which was the case (normal) but disappointing. We would have changed our program. We wanted to see ND de Paris. Otherwise well organized.

The entire experience was wonderful and memorable. My husband & I have enjoyed it on several occasions over the years. He has passed away recently so it was full of heartwarming but bittersweet memories. Our oldest daughter accompanied me this time. We both loved it from the food to the music. It's always on my list of things to do when I am in Paris! I'll be back!

Excellent! Very romantic, very friendly staff, everything great, the wine for dinner could be a little better, since we are in wine country and a bottle of 9 € costs you 30 €. For the rest....wanting to repeat, by the way, in the dessert you could ask for a candle to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, marriage proposal,...

I loved the environment, the music was very appropriate for the ocassion the waitress was adorable she went out of her way to spoiled us with a surprise cake with a flame at the end of our meal. The food can be better my meat was dry and hard to cut same my husband's duck. Nevertheless it was a very memorable night for us to say good bye Paris and celebrate with my husband our long planned trip. Thank you silvana
