Paris: Early Evening Dinner Cruise on the River Seine – Paris, France

EXPERIENCE:

Enjoy panoramic views of the Paris illuminations on an early evening dinner cruise down the River Seine, and enjoy a gourmet menu of classic French cuisine along the way.

Board the boat at Port Solferino on the Quai Anatole France, and take your seats at your designated table. Set off in the cool ambiance of dusk, and cruise past some of the city’s most iconic monuments. See the ornate façade of the Musée d’Orsay, housed in the Beaux-Arts railway station of the former Gare d’Orsay.

Enjoy panoramic views from the glass-enclosed vessel as you pass the iron-lattice Eiffel Tower, the Gothic edifice of Notre Dame, and the palatial home of the Louvre Museum. Marvel at the bombastic building of the French National Assembly, and cruise under the historic Pont Neuf.
