Rewatching this as will be in Paris for the first time in a couple of weeks and have to say that this is the best video on TH-cam explaining the Seine cruises - great explanation, maps and visuals. Thanks a heap for doing these and all your others which I’m sure will make my time in Paris so much more enjoyable 😊

Oh, I wish I saw this video before I book. Thank you so much for the tip. Looking forward to go back to Paris soon.

[@paristoptips]

Thanks a lot. Hope it will come true!

[@tea98988]

@@paristoptips Yes, thank you, it’s coming true in a few weeks. I lived there briefly in the early 2000. Have been going back every few years but it’s been 4 years since the pandemic. I can’t wait to return to France!

[@paristoptips]

Then, I hope you have a great stay...

[@hothotheat3000]

Absolutely do the cruise. They’re much more affordable than you think.

[@paristoptips]

That's true!

[@AnneMB955]

I’ve booked the 24-hour Batobus. Never been on a Seine cruise before even though my 5th visit. Everyone should watch this for ideas.

[@paristoptips]

I hope you'll have good weather...

So true!

[@melindagonzales3298]

I am going on a family trip and want to know which is the best dinner cruise. Decision is so difficult. Your video is incredible because I now know more options for day and night. Thank you.

[@paristoptips]

I've only done one dinner cruise recently, so I could not compare them all, but the one I did with Bateaux Parisiens was very nice, with excellent food, and a perfect timing for the sparkling Eiffel Tower!

[@melindagonzales3298]

@@paristoptips I booked from them last night thanks to your video. Merci.

[@a.j.4515]

Hello, thanks a lot for this very useful information! keep up the good works!
by the way which one are you recommend between Bateaux Mouches and Bateaux Parisien?
I have 5 people with me and 1 year old that often cry, i prefer if it's not too crowded.

[@paristoptips]

Both might get crowded and have the same size of boats. I really would not favor one over the other.
Have a great stay in Paris!

[@tracypinto8943]

Do you have a recommendation for a night cruise that picks up closest to staying in Saint Germain???

[@paristoptips]

The closest to Saint-Germain are the Vedettes du Pont-Neuf.
They also have dinner cruises, called "Paris romantique" starting from the Orsay museum.

[@aragorn318]

I chose the Le Calife dinner cruise from 8:45pm until 10:45pm for 5/9. My question is, do you think it's safe for me to take the metro afterwards to my hotel in the 9th arrondisement?

[@paristoptips]

Yes, absolutely. In these neighborhoods, until midnight it should be fine...

[@michaelchen2718]

2:12: just to confirm the Bateaux parisiens do not have a person talking the whole time correct? only if you want to listen through app on phone?

[@paristoptips]

Yes, these cruises use an audio-guide that you can have on your smartphone or through a wired system on the lower deck.

[@michaelchen2718]

@@paristoptips Ok merci! Also since the cruise departs once every hour, and the sun does not set in juin until nearly 22h, should I wait until 22h if I want to see the city at night on the water?

[@paristoptips]

Yes, definitely.

[@nongboxja]

Hi, if I stay in Le Marais. Which cruise is the closest by walking distance?

[@paristoptips]

Vedettes du Pont Neuf is the closest from Le Marais for real cruises: www.vedettesdupontneuf.com/home/
Or Batobus Mairie de Paris stop: www.batobus.com/en

[@AlmaZois6]

Which in your opinion is the best hour to experience it?

[@paristoptips]

Sunset!
Starting by day, finishing by night, with normally the Eiffel Tower sparkling at the hour.

[@eminiqa]

Hello how are you? Could you please recommend a cruise that is close to the 107 rue marte?

[@paristoptips]

If it is rue Martel, then the closest would be Vedettes du Pont-Neuf, but as you would have to take transport, any would do!

[@eminiqa]

@@paristoptips thank you so much for your prompt reply ❤️

[@eminiqa]

@@paristoptips it is actually rue martre clichy

[@paristoptips]

@@eminiqa Then they are all equally distant from Clichy...

[@eminiqa]

@Paris Top Tips do u mean it's close by? I am so confused. I am not sure which cruise to book. Also is it better to go to vedette du pont neuf by taxi or metro?
