About the experience

**For this excursion, the maximum capacity is limited to 5 passengers to ensure optimal comfort on board.**

Settle aboard your private boat for a one-hour cruise, ideal for discovering Paris from the water, far from the hustle and bustle of the city. Departing from the Beaugrenelle stopover (Port de Javel Haut), you'll sail along the Seine to the Louvre Museum before turning around and returning to your starting point, still amazed.

From the first few meters, the Eiffel Tower looms on the horizon, majestic and unmistakable. You glide peacefully under the Bir-Hakeim Bridge, a true movie set with its metal structure and breathtaking view of the Iron Lady. The Alma Bridge quickly follows, then the tree-lined banks reveal splendid views of the Haussmannian facades and the iconic monuments of the Left Bank. As you approach the Pont Alexandre III, the cruise takes on a grandiose dimension: on one side, the golden dome of Les Invalides; on the other, the Grand Palais and its monumental glass roofs. The river cruise then takes you past the Musée d'Orsay, with its elegant silhouette of a former train station transformed into a cultural showcase. Finally, the Louvre beckons, imposing and solemn, offering one of its most beautiful faces from the Seine.

The return journey allows you to once again appreciate the architectural details and the serenity of the river, as the boat glides gently towards Beaugrenelle. Perfect for a first-time visitor to Paris or for rediscovering the city in a different way, this condensed cruise is nonetheless rich in wonder.

Book your private cruise now and let the magic of the Seine work its magic, between the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre.

    To celebrate our mother's 80th birthday, we spent 2 unforgettable hours on Ettore's boat, there were 9 of us and the boat is very comfortable, we learned a lot of things thanks to the owner's detailed descriptions of the monuments along the way. We were also able to clink glasses and nibble around the table. Again, a big thank you for your kindness and attentiveness. We will never forget this wonderful cruise.

    Ettore is an extremely friendly and welcoming Captain. His boat is a little gem! He took great care of us. We took a tailor-made 4-hour cruise to Seguin Island, a haven of greenery just a stone's throw from Paris. An unforgettable evening ?thanks to Ettore ? Many thanks!

    Another magical moment spent on Ettore's boat! The boat is in perfect condition, very comfortable and well maintained. There are even life jackets suitable for children; ideal for a family cruise on the Seine, the most beautiful avenue in the most beautiful city in the world! The Paris Boat Club team is its best ambassador.

    Ettore's boat is in perfect condition, very comfortable and very well equipped (the toilets on board are a real plus for a cruise lasting several hours). Ettore is a passionate captain who will show you the most beautiful views of Paris on the Seine. A privileged and unmissable experience.
