The experience at Palais Garnier was absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we entered, the grandeur of the architecture, the ornate ceilings, and the iconic grand staircase left us in awe. Every corner of the opera house reflects history, elegance, and artistic brilliance. The self-guided tour was well organized and allowed us to explore at our own pace, appreciating the intricate details and rich stories behind the space. Booking through Headout was seamless and hassle-free, with clear instructions and easy access. A truly enriching cultural experience that beautifully captures the soul of Paris.

It was a very nice experience because from the boat you could see the Eiffel Tower perfectly, as well as other important buildings and monuments of the city. It was very comfortable to be on both sides of the boat, both inside and outside, since from the outside you could see the whole city beautifully, and if it was too cold we could get in for a while. I imagine that in more touristy months the boat gets completely full, but at this time of year there were not so many people and we were able to enjoy the whole experience!

First the booking through the headout App was very easy. On arrival in Paris everything worked perfectly without any hiccups and the tour was spectacular, a different way to take a historical tour with the explanation of the guides on the ship or with the audios. We really enjoyed it. In addition the boats are very comfortable with heating inside if you want to be more comfortable or outside if you are more adventurous.

    Our Seine River cruise experience last December 2025 was nothing short of magical. It was the perfect way to see Paris from a different perspective, especially during the winter season when the city feels extra romantic and cozy. Gliding along the Seine while passing iconic landmarks like the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame, the Louvre, and Musée d’Orsay felt surreal, almost like watching a beautiful postcard come to life. What made the experience even more special was the calm and relaxed atmosphere. It allowed us to truly take in the beauty of Paris without the rush of walking or traffic. The commentary was informative yet easy to follow, giving us meaningful insights into the city’s history and architecture. As the lights reflected on the water and the Eiffel Tower Sparkles the view became absolutely unforgettable. It was a memorable, family-friendly experience and one of the highlights of our Paris trip. A Seine cruise is truly a must-do for anyone wanting to experience Paris in an elegant and timeless way.

    The cruise on the Seine was magical: lights reflected on the water, the Eiffel Tower shining, soft music, wine, laughter and a vibe that simply makes you fall in love with Paris. An experience that I keep in my heart and would recommend a thousand times.

    It was a beautiful cruise and perfect to end the night because it was warm inside. The French music played throughout the cruise was also lovely.
