What to expect

Discover Paris' main highlights onboard a cruise on the Seine River and the Canal Saint-Martin!

Make your way to the departure point near the Villette Bassin and settle into a seat in the inside cabin or outside deck of a specially-designed sightseeing boat. As you cruise down the Seine, admire some of the city’s most iconic monuments including the Louvre Museum, Institute of France, Ile-Saint-Louis and Notre Dame Cathedral. Enjoy live commentary that provides interesting background on passing attractions.

You'll cruise through a historic canal system built under the direction of Napoleon in the early 1800s. Travel through a dimly lit tunnel beneath the French Revolution site Place de la Bastille, emerging onto a romantic watery boulevard. You'll learn the history behind old, authentic Parisian neighborhoods as you travel through a series of locks and lovely footbridges.
