The sightseeing cruise on the Seine River was a beautiful and unforgettable experience. Departing from the Eiffel Tower gives it a special charm from the very beginning. Cruising down the river allowed us to enjoy spectacular views of Paris in a peaceful and very pleasant atmosphere. I recommend buying tickets through the Headout website, as it saves time and avoids queues. The service was very good and the tour was full of magical moments. The cruise facilities were very beautiful, with optional meals and spectacular views. I went with my husband and would definitely do it again. It's a highly recommended experience to enjoy and fall even more in love with Paris.

A lovely little cruise, perfect for seeing sights such as Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower. We went around 7 and were faced with a hefty queue; dont be intimidated by it, it clears pretty quickly. But it was very busy in the evening, im not sure if you're better off going in the day but then you do miss the Eiffel Tower in the evening. If you're going in the evening at winter and are planning to sit on the top deck of the cruise, I recommend wrapping up because it's extremely cold. But definitely worth the money:)

As a couple, we enjoyed a lovely boat trip on the Seine, which was the perfect way to discover the city from a different perspective. During the trip, you pass several sights while enjoying the view in peace and quiet. The commentary was a little quiet, but we had downloaded the audio guide and were able to follow along perfectly on our phone. Definitely recommended for anyone visiting Paris who wants to discover the city in a touristy way.

    I loved climbing to the top of the Eiffel Tower 🤩 What an incredible view! Really great, very different from just going to the second floor✌️ Be sure to pick up your ticket at the address near the Tower. An online ticket is not enough, and I hadn't realized that. You need to arrive 30 minutes early to make sure you get there on time. The combo with the cruise on the Seine is also very worthwhile. It's worth buying both together 👌
