An evening to remember - This was a special night out to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Bateaux Parisiens did not disappoint. From the surroundings to the bottomless wine, 4 course dinner and an elaborately decorated Paris all around us, how can you go wrong? It was a memorable experience definitely worth the extras.

Amazing experience to say goodbye to Paris ! - We were visiting Paris for our 1st time, and we toured France during 10 days. We decided that we wanted to say goodbye to Paris the last night of our trip with this tour. It was a fantastic experience, with beautiful views and delicious food !! The service of the staff was superb.

A great way to see sights while visiting Paris - This is a great way to dine in Paris while taking in sites. We have done this cruse 4 times, the most recent June 2024, and will return because it is so much fun. They have live music and its never a dull moment. The food is ok. Have your camara ready to snap all the sites. The starting and ending location is the bottom of the Eiffel Tower.

Highlight of our trip - Wonderful and relaxing for the whole family! Food and service was excellent, we sat in a non-window side seat which was fine, you can see plenty. The steak I ordered was delicious. The only thing I didn't like as much was the music. The singer was lovely but I was expecting maybe some jazz standards or something more French instead of Ed Sheeran, Coldplay, Miley Cyrus, etc. But all in all it was an unforgettable experience.

Lovely cruise, everything else poor. - It was n enjoyable boat journey with sights. However it didn’t seem very personal. Very mass produced. The slightly more costly seating by the windows seemed to get waiters who made conversation. The food was average, my wife’s scallops were raw, the waiter argued with me about my wine choice and made it difficult. Then I had to remind him, I got shouted at, as I asked again for my wine. Then if we needed anything, it was a big ask for anything. All for nearly £300. Lovely cruise but everything else was disappointing.

No notice provided that river was flooded and would not offer refund. Food is nice on the boat and friendly wait staff - The provider does not notify you of changes in the river. If it is flooded you go a different way down the Seine with very little site seeing, statue of liberty, effiel tower and some restraunts. Asked for the full refund and they would not offer. There offer was 50% only off the transport on the cruise about 1/4 of the cost. Viator was also unhelpful in getting any better outcome of refund.

Bait and switch! Beware! - Although we paid $$$ for a premium Christmas dinner cruising along the Seine, what we received was a dinner on a boat that was docked. We were told upon our 7:30 pm check-in that the boat would not be traveling on the Seine due to high water level. Of course we had no idea that was even a possibility especially for the $$$ we paid. Unless I missed it somewhere in the fine print, I did not see a disclaimer. We were offered tickets for future ride along the Seine on one of their non-dinner boats if we opted to keep our dinner reservation. Uhhh, it was Christmas Day and we had no idea what places were open for dinner so it really did not seem like we had a choice especially last second. What we would have appreciated was an email a few days in advance to inform us of possible cancellation due to rising waters so we could cancel and make alternate plans. That would have been the right thing to do as an honest company. Unfortunately we received no such notice. Food was OK and portions were small. Was this experience worth almost $200 per person? Oh heck to the H-E- double hockey sticks no. Were we ripped off? Oh so very OUI! Save yourself the time, anxiety and money and find a dinner cruise company with boats that are able to travel in the Seine regardless of high water level. Yes, such boating companies exist as we did see a few dinner cruises that night and wished we were a part of THAT dining experience. We were deeply disappointed for the rock bottom, lowest of low customer service. Not all dinner cruises are the same. We deserved better and so do you. Highly recommend avoiding this company.
