Loved it!

The food was decent, nothing to write home about, however the service was fantastic. The cruise was absolutely lovely - there is no tour guide, so it ended up being a low key evening on the Seine w good music and company. Highly recommend for the first night you’re in Paris.

Great experiences with picturesque views

The ezperience was exactly as advertised - restaurant on board with guaranteed window seat (I recommend left side if possible so that you'll see Eiffel tower ilumination at 22:00 if you depart at 20:30), delicious meals, great live music (violin and piano, popular french chanson and world classics), upper deck can be accessed through the stairs for great views id weather is good. It should be also mentioned that this facility is not crowded - even for tables in the middle of salon there is ample space for everyone. There is also an option to book taxi in advance with the facility, yet, one can easily take the available taxi or order Bolt or Uber upon arrival.

Successful evening

Our waiter was super friendly and attentive. The food was good and plentiful. On the way back, we pass by the illuminated and blinking Eiffel Tower. Our waiter pointed out to us that it was time to go up, as we had rain, we were not really in the mood for fresh air, and otherwise, we would have missed it.

Even in the rain, it's worth it!

It was a drizzly, rainy evening, but despite that the views were beautiful, the service was fantastic, the meal was delicious, and the entire evening was so worth it. It's a wonderful, slow-paced cruise down the river and back. Throughout the evening we enjoyed an exception live musical performance with a talented pianist and violinist. A professional photographer goes from table to table and gets a few photos of everyone. You choose whether you'd like to purchase, so no strings attached. All in all, I highly recommend it!
