Why you’ll love this…
  • The all-glass boat offers a panoramic view of Paris and its iconic sites in an elegant atmosphere
  • There’s a refined French three-course lunch to tuck into, freshy prepared by the onboard chef
  • You can sip your wine as you cruise past sites like Notre Dame Cathedral and the Louvre Museum
What to expect

You’ll board at the foot of the Eiffel Tower for an indulgent two-hour lunch cruise along the River Seine. As you glide along France’s most iconic river, you’ll get an unrivalled view of the landmarks and historic sites that prompted this main stretch of the riverbank to be recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Gaze out of the glass panoramic canopy of the boat as you cruise by Notre Dame Cathedral, the Conciergerie, the Louvre Museum, Parliament, City Hall, and much more. As you tuck into a freshy prepared French three-course lunch with aperitif and wine, you’ll hear snippets of commentary to highlight key monuments – the perfect reminder to have your camera ready to snap the sights as you sail by.

There are five table and service options to choose from:

Etoile Cruise (Table at centre of the boat):

Including starter + main course + dessert + Kir as an aperitif + wine + coffee. Available for tables of two to ten.
