Ticketing online was easy. The cruise was great! I loved that all the seats were outward-facing so you (almost) never had to look over people. We did the dusk cruise in March and got the best of both worlds by seeing Paris in the daylight and lit up in the dark, too. Would have loved a bit more info on the bridges and a bit more time to take pics (Pont Alexandre, especially), but overall, would definitely do again!

The perfect organization for us to get us neatly on board and give us a great tour. We had more than enough opportunities to take beautiful pictures of Paris, partly because we were informed about this in a timely manner by the speaker.

This was one of the highlights of our trip. The views were beautiful, the boat was clean and safe, and it was not overcrowded. Both children and adults in our group had a lovely time. We could have stayed on much longer.

    Choosing the right seat is very important, and sitting on the left-hand side is rather interesting. A little Marseillaise on the way.
