...was mentioned a company called Bateaux Parisiens which runs tours up and down the Seine between Notre-Dame and the Eiffel Tower. At this moment in time it seemed like a marvelous idea otherwise littlemissy and I were going to kill everyone on the Isle de City with our nuke. Twenty minutes later, and having avoided loads of dodgy French men and women offering to draw our portrait we discover the Bateaux Parisiens office on the Left Bank.

The boats used by Bateaux Parisiens can carry from 40 to 400 people at a time so getting a seat on any particular boat should be relatively easy to do. They also apparently run special cruise in the evenings during which you can sip wine and have a bite but you will have to check up on that if you want to try it out. If ...

The Best Review ofBateaux Parisiens, Parisby
stan-the-man
Advantages: A Special Treat Disadvantages: None!!

The all-inclusive price was excellent value, with a 5 course meal, 2 bottles of wine and two glasses of champagne for £50 each. Add in a tour of Paris by river and a very entertaining cabaret and you get value for money and lasting memories of the most romantic city in ...

Advantages: Great Service, fantastic experience Disadvantages: None
Myself and my girlfriend booked this trip a month in advance of our weekend in Paris and confirmation arrived immediately. We opted for the superior service, when we arrived we were able to avoid queing, I would guess there were 300 people on the boat! The superior option meant a better table, better service and more space around the table as well as better quality wines. The trip was amazing, the service and entertainment were superb and the quality ...
