Dinner Cruise on Seine River
On our second day in Paris, we took the 9:15 pm dinner cruise on the Seine river with a company called Marina De Paris. Marina de Paris provides elegant and quality dinner on the river Seine. You will pass by all the major sights while you enjoy the beautifully prepared dinner. The views of Paris are wonderful in this romantic atmosphere.
Marina De Paris
A dinner cruise on the Seine is a great way to spend an evening in Paris. The cruise starts near the Musée D’Orsay, where we boarded around 8.45 pm and received a beautiful window table. The boat was beautiful, with large windows so you have beautiful views of the monuments along the Seine, wherever you sit. The tables were nicely arranged for a romantic evening and there was beautiful French music playing in the background. We waited while the rest of the boat filled up and in the meantime, a photographer stopped by our table and took photos, which you can buy later. We were also given a menu so that we could choose the main dish (chicken, fish or beef).
Dinner
First, we received the starters, which were a selection of 4 little dishes. They were very tasty and beautifully presented on the plate. For the main dish we had fish and chicken and we also ordered a bottle of wine (extra charge around €30). For the third course, we received four different desserts. Again, they were delicious. I have to say that the food was very well presented and most enjoyable. We loved the small serve of starters and desserts and were very impressed by the look and taste.
The Cruise
The cruise will take you up and down the Seine River. You can enjoy amazing views of the Notre-Dame, the Louvre, La Conciergerie, Place de la Concorde, the Statue of Liberty, the Eiffel Tower and the beautiful bridges. The lights along the river and the sights were excellent but the highlight of the night is cruising past the Eiffel Tower at 11.00 pm when the light show starts. It is breathtaking!
Conclusion
We had a fantastic experience with Marina De Paris Cruise and it is an exceptional way to see Paris at night. It is also a very romantic cruise to take, so do enjoy it with your loved ones.
You will get familiar with the most stunning monuments of Paris and have a romantic 3-course dinner with spectacular views from the water. We enjoyed the slow food service, but we think that the waiter should come by the table more often, as the service was a bit too slow. Overall we had a really good time and would warmly recommend it.
We booked Marina de Paris cruise through a website called “Come to Paris”, which offers dozens of activities, excursions and performances specially chosen for all ages, all tastes, and all budgets.
