Your Itinerary

Suresnes

(Pass by)

Departure from a private port, on-site restaurant toilets before departure and drinks shop 100 meters away.

Parc de L'ile Saint Germain

(Pass by)

A little nature before entering Paris. Magnificent houses boat all the way. The history of Saint-Germain Island is dotted with successive battles against uncontrolled urbanization and industrialization of the place. Saint-Germain Island is above all agricultural land. The construction of the Central Comptoir of Crédit Bonnard et Cie, then of the Agricultural Pavilion for the Universal Exhibition of 1867, began the transformation of the site. We will follow the island of Saint Germain to Issy les Moulineaux

La Seine Musicale

(Pass by)

The first island on our route. Built in place of the former Renault factory on Seguin Island in Boulogne-Billancourt, the Seine Musicale is preparing to open its doors and rebalance the Parisian cultural offering by establishing itself in the west of the capital the Musical Seine. The other room, the largest with 4,000 seats and 6,000 standing, will accommodate amplified concerts, musicals or musical theater. Choplin has the ambition to make it a “destination place and permanent musical celebration” and intends to use the experience of his stay at the Châtelet to “give an identity to this place”. An incredible concert space on an island! We will discover the locals' "House boats" on the water.

Statue de la Liberte

(Pass by)

Magnificent Statue of Liberty! Installed and inaugurated in 1889 at the Grenelle bridge, it then faced the Eiffel Tower and pointed its torch in the direction of the Elysée; she will finally be moved with her back to the Grande Dame in 1937 in order to face New York where her big sister is located. We pass in front of the Statue of Liberty.

Eiffel Tower

(Pass by)

The Eiffel Tower was built to be one of the main attractions of the Universal Exhibition in Paris in 1889. Placed under the sign of industrial progress and large constructions of iron and steel, the Universal Exhibition of 1889 occupied the entire Field -from March to Paris. We pass in front of the Eiffel Tower

Pont Alexandre III

(Pass by)

One of the most beautiful bridges in Paris. A remarkable cast steel bridge, 160 meters long. As the specifications predicted, the Alexandre III Bridge is perfectly decorated. 32 bronze candelabra (these beautiful lampposts with several branches), 4 pillars 17 meters high topped with golden crowns, a rich cast iron decoration in the Louis XIV style and beautiful lion statues at each end magnify this bridge, which has been classified as a historic monument since 1975. We will go under the bridge.

Musee d'Orsay

(Pass by)

A museum in a station! Until then, it was rather disused convents and churches, or even old palaces, which were thus reconverted, not without difficulties. This time it is an industrial building. Yes, moreover, it will not be adapted “piecemeal” but delivered in three years, turnkey, ready to operate, to the team responsible for bringing it to life. Built by Victor Laloux in 1900 in a style closer to that of the Second Empire than to Art Nouveau, the Orsay station has come a long way, exactly from annihilation. Passage in front of the museum

Louvre Museum

(Pass by)

A huge museum While the court of the Sun King moved to Versailles, the Palais du Louvre was occupied by nobles, intellectuals and artists who took up residence there. The latter made a proposal to the king for a museum project. Louis XVI liked this idea and began the development work. It was the French Revolution that precipitated the opening of the Grande Galerie to the public.

Pont-Neuf

(Pass by)

The oldest bridge in Paris. The construction was decided in 1577 by King Henry III who appointed a commission responsible for ensuring the smooth running of the work. A year later, the first stone of the bridge was laid by the king himself, in the presence of the queen mother Catherine de Medici and the king's wife, Louise de Lorraine. The work will continue until 1588.

Pont des Arts

(Pass by)

The famous bridge where tourists have put too many padlocks! The construction of the bridge lasted 3 years, between 1801 and 1804. The architects of the time imagined it as the basis of a hanging garden. It is the first metal bridge in Paris, made of cast iron with nine arches, and from that time it was baptized with the name it bears today. Magnificent moment on the boat

Ile de la Cite / Ile Saint-Louis

(Pass by)

The Île de la Cité is the cradle of Paris, where the initial core of Lutetia developed. Over time, in the shelter of its fortifications, the civil, military and religious powers of the region were established there and then developed. After the year 1000, the Capetian kings built a first Royal Palace (which became the current Palace of Justice). The bishops of Paris built Notre-Dame Cathedral. From that moment on, the Ile de la Cité was no longer sufficient to accommodate all the inhabitants. They then established themselves on the island of Saint Louis and on both banks of the Seine. We will follow the two islands of Cité and Saint Louis.

Quais de la Seine

(Pass by)

We will pass near the Pont Marie. Parisians' favorite walking route. The Marie Bridge was born at the beginning of the 17th century, from the royal desire to create a new traffic route between the right bank and the University of the left bank, and to exploit still virgin land. At the same time as him, the entire island of Saint-Louis is opening up to urban planning. For a long time, Île Saint-Louis was made up of two unused islets, separated by a channel and which belonged to the canons of Notre-Dame. They were called Notre-Dame Island and Vaches Island, the latter name testifying to the absence of urbanization on these lands.

Statue de la Liberte

(Pass by)

End point, drop off, in front of the statue of Liberty Or come back to Suresnes city for drop off

Katrina_H

What a great experience! Our family of 6 had so much fun and what a great view! We were so thankful to have such a small intimate ride compared to those big boats that we kept seeing. Alexis was so knowledgeable and funny. Don’t hesitate to book this and we’ll see you next time we’re in Paris!

Eric_G

Beautiful experience with the fantastic Captain Alexis who gave us fantastic explanations. Do not take the large tour boats. Take this one. One of the best ways to see the city.

Scott_C

Way better than the river cruise on a packed tour boat. We loved having the boat all to ourselves and enjoyed our own wine and snacks. Alexis was a great tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and proud of his city. This is the only way to see Paris by boat. We would definitely do this tour again.

Aileen D

We had an absolutely amazing time on our excursion with Captain Alexis! We sailed with our children 5 and 6. He explained the different landmarks we were seeing and was friendly and humorous. He let us all take turns driving the boat. At the end our kids had such a great time they gave him a big hug! Can’t recommend this enough.

Highly recommend this thoroughly entertaining private boat trip with Captain Alexis. His knowledge of Paris is first class, as is his humour. Best way to spend an afternoon on the river in Paris. The Hallidays 😊

Jennifer_B

This was a fabulous experience! We really enjoyed getting to see famous Paris sites from a private boat. The captain was friendly and even let my teens drive the boat briefly. He provided a bottle of wine and we brought our own bread and cheese. We got some great pictures of our family.

CaliforniaSweetpea

Fantastic! This is truly a wonderful experience that our family highly recommends. The delightful captain is knowledgeable, personable and takes pictures with all the Paris landmarks. The time flies by and you will have to pinch yourself to realize you are cruising the Seine. If you have the opportunity, book this cruise.

Lisa B

We booked this trip for my husband’s birthday. It was an amazing way to see the city. We had our 13 year old son with us as well and our captain involved him in the tour which built the excitement. We got some wonderful family photos as well. I would highly recommend this trip.
