4.3/5 stars – based on 3110 reviews

Everything as described good tour – we decided to stay downstairs as it was too hot on deck and it was spacy and quiet. A very nice way to spend a relaxing hour
Julie – Russia

Nice way to see some of Paris’ important buildings from the water. A beautiful experience, especially in the evening. There is a covered area, but you can also sit on the deck. This is cold in winter, but gives a nice way to see it best.
Peter – Netherlands

Amazing view of the city. My son and I had a great time visiting the city of Paris and Bordeaux. We will be back soon.
