5.00Our private boat tour on the seine was our favorite part of our family trip to Paris. The captain was so kind and informative. He took photos at the perfect locations for us to look back on fondly. The communication was excellent and we located the docking port very easily. Blankets were provided as it was cool that day but they also had cups and wine opener for the wine and snacks we brought with us. Would highly recommend to anyone!!
Amazing boat cruise on the Seine with the best captain!!

5.00We had a great time on Alexis' boat. It's pricey but a much more fun way to see things than the bateux mouche. Highly recommended.
Great time on the River.
