Boarding was smooth and guide was knowledgeable. We did not like the fact that vending machines onboard were practically empty. It was cold outside and the inner lights reflection would not let us take good pictures.

It was easy to book. Great view of all the famous landmarks. Busy but enough space for all. Loved the e experience, great guide to download but maybe a bit of commentary , would have helped too? The only thing that spoiled it was other visitors as they would not sit down so struggled with some photos as in the way

The view of Paris in the evening was very beautiful, especially when the Eiffel Tower began to light up. It was of course very crowded and almost everyone was up on the sun deck. You have to like crowds. Afternoon trips are less crowded.

The queue was quite long but it worked out well for it being darker by time we got to the cruise, so every where was lit up . It was amazing seeing Eifle tower all lit up became quite chilly coming back if sit on top but just take a coat or move to the indoor hour .This was one of the best things we booked and good value for money would definitely recommend doing this .

The tour ended up going a different way to the way that was set out in the plan. Because of this we ended up sat in the wrong area of the boat. The guide spent more time on his phone than he did giving us a description of where we were. He also failed to mention a couple of landmarks that we passed. Not worth it !

The boat was nice and warm with good views from the top. The tannoy commentary was very basic and dull. The handset audio guides didn't work and using a downloaded audio from your phone is not really practical to do at the same time as enjoying the sights. I would have much preferred a detailed guide over the tannoy or using the provided handsets. That being said, we did enjoy the cruise as the river and its surroundings are beautiful in themselves, and the boat was comfortable and safe.

This tour was just ok. The water is much lower than the sights on the cruise so it was hard to see, the only thing we really liked was the view of the Eiffel Tower from the boat. Also the audio guides - we tried many- didn't work.

Thanks for the option of river cruise with macaron tasting. Instructions get to the river cruise were simple and easy to follow and was conveniently sent to WhatsApp. The cruise was delightful with beautiful views to witness. Highly recommended activity to enjoy your evening in Paris. We got the taste yummy macarons from Makdamia. We even tasted their hot chocolate. Their hot chocolate was yummy and authentic. Recommended to spend some time at the shop to buy good quality handmade chocolates.

It was all so easy! Booking online, following the directions to the pier, finding the perfect seat (down below and outside-perfect) The one hour fit into our schedule perfectly and covered all the important sites. It is so great to see Paris from the perspective of the river as well! - and the price is extreamly resonable!

The process was generally well organized. It is a pity that with almost all bookings, groups generally have "right of way", especially on boat tours, and individual visitors are left behind. Otherwise, it was a nice boat tour with a great audio guide.

I liked everything, the service is very good. I only recommend that they cancel or correct the gift of chocolate or macaron because it seems to me a mockery or at least give that information before and not that you find out on the ship itself. I consider that this is a mistake and does not favor them. Regards

Not having my tickets available after purchase was problematic, the tickets never loaded even after I download the headout app. Having to wait till the day of the event to get our tickets was not good. Also, I wasn't given a chance to select a start time for the cruise. The fact that we had flexible tickets should have been made clear in my email confirmation because all the FAQs harped on being ontime or you'll forfeit your tickets. Instead, my email confirmation only showed the open time which caused confusion.

According to the ticket, the closing time was 7 PM. We got off the ship at 5PM and had something to eat. We had tickets for the Eiffel Tower and wanted to take the boat there after dinner around 6:30 PM. But there was no more boat as the trip ended at 5:30 PM according to Teleoninfo. We had to take a cab. That was not nice!

Simple online booking, although very negative reviews for headout can be read on the net. I risked it anyway, due to positive experience and YES!!!!!!!, the booked guided tours Eiffel Tower to the top and boat tour on the Seine were a mega experience. What I would particularly like to mention is that after booking I received super good instructions on how everything would proceed. Right down to the last detail and what can I say, that makes a city tour relaxed. Thanks to headout!!!👍 By the way, many thanks to Nihad, our tour guide that day, who managed to bridge the waiting time in a friendly, funny and informative way! THANK YOU!!!

Checkin was a little confusing; almost missed getting the information on how to access the boat cruise. Once the tour started, our Guide was excellent and shared some great info about the Eiffel Tower. Liked that he shared it all and then we were free to explore on our own. Line-ups for elevator were as expected, so be prepared to stand for awhile.

Our tour Guide, Sol, was a 10/10! Her english was clear and easy to understand. Her enthusiasm was great! She was patient, informed, with an engaging delivery of the information. She was eager to answer any questions, made sure our group of 7 was kept together, patiently acted as photographer for everyone in the group, and provided a great history of the tower. The boat ride was pleasant, but with much less info provided about the buildings along the way.

Labeled "Eiffel Tower Guided Tour by Elevator", it was more like a "Hosted Tour" with some splashes of "Guiding". We did skip some lines, and had a generally good experience, but we expected a lot more guiding than what we got.

We thought that the tour would be guided the whole time. It was written in the mail that it is a guided tour that lasts 2 hours. Nowhere was it written that the tour guide would leave us at the Eiffel Tower, and no one said that you could then stay at the Eiffel Tower as long as you wanted, that you could simply do the boat tour at some point, e.g. days / weeks later, that we would not arrive back at the boat tour on the Seine where the stopping point is where you left the boat tour. Suddenly we docked at another boat and had to get off because the tour supposedly ended here for us. We had to walk back a long way to get back to the starting point. There was a link to the navigation to the meeting point for the ascent to the Eiffel Tower but no navigation to the boat dock. No more guidance. We lacked all this information. Therefore we were very disappointed and would not book a tour with them again and would not recommend them to others. Quite the opposite . We paid just under €100 per person for it. I think you can provide all this information about how it really works. Then we wouldn't have had to be so annoyed and we would have saved ourselves a few kilometers on the way back. With not so pleasant greetings Petra Krüler

I broke my foot several days before and I was not allowed to go past the first or second level because of it. The rest of my family travelled to the top. Our guide, Mathias from Argentina was terrific and very nice. They wouldn't allow me to go to the top because they were afraid of an evacuation that I wouldn't be able to take the stairs, but meanwhile, they told me to take the stairs down one level and there was no other way to get down. Plus, I had a walking boot. As a result, my husband got separated from us and we had to wait an hour to reunite the whole family because I couldn't stay with them.

The meeting point was easy to find and only a few minutes' walk from the entrance to the Eiffel Tower. The tour guide went through the security gate quickly and then we went directly with him to the fast elevator (travel time 2 min). It only took 30 minutes from the meeting point to the 2nd platform. The boat tour could then be visited independently (free time allocation - day and time). The view from the Eiffel Tower was a great experience and the boat trip offered another perspective. I can recommend it to others.

Mouse Louvre visit and Bateaux Moches wonderful! Although tickets for the date we chose were sold out on the museum's official website, we found a super package on Ticket Paris through Headout; visit to the Louvre Museum + cruise on the Seine with Bateaux Mouches. We started with the Louvre Museum; the amount of people queuing for entry was truly unimaginable, but thanks to our scheduled tickets with date and time, the queue in a few minutes was exhausted and we were able to make entry at the museum. Everything was organized perfectly. Immediately after our visit to the museum, we went to the point from which our cruise on the Seine would shortly depart; the convenience that a boat departs every half hour allowed us to better organize our connections. Arriving at the boat, in a few minutes, showing the ticket via app on our smartphone, we got on--and immediately ready to depart on the cruise. A 1-hour tour, in which we saw what most characterizes Paris. Everything was perfect, despite the fact that we were not familiar with the site and the app! The tickets arrived in the inbox the night before our visit, and with the convenience of having them directly on the app even without the use of an Internet connection. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

We also managed to get in a few minutes earlier than the time stipulated in the reservation, and this allowed us to cope better with the queue at the security checkpoints. The museum is really big and rich, although some rooms were closed for new installations. The visit lasted for more than 5 hours, which literally flew by between pavilions. I recommend visiting the museum in the morning when it is open, so as to avoid as much as possible the huge mass of people arriving throughout the day. The beauties admired were a balm to the eyes and a caress to the soul.

The museum visit was great. However, I bought three combined tickets with a boat trip on the Seine and the tickets for this boat trip were not accepted (the code was wrong). Even after contacting the chatbot, I was sent the tickets for the museum again, which was of no use to me for the Seine boat trip. We were therefore unable to take the boat trip, which was very annoying. I request a refund and compensation on my credit card.

Was very suspicious using Headout as had never heard of them before and I struggled to find concrete reviews. I was trying to source tickets to the Louvre in Paris as they get booked up weeks in advance and the trip was quite impromptu. I had been everywhere for them but to no avail. I decided to try Headout and it was well worth it. We booked a river cruise and entrance to the Louvre for 2 adults and 2 children. They state that the tickets will be emailed the day before the event which naturally I thought was a scam. It was not! They rely on their local operators to obtain them usually. Sure enough I received them a day before. Only the 2 adults require paid tickets and one of them was titled as my youngest which had me concerned. I called the helpline and spoke to Alicia who could not have been more helpful. She looked into it and confirmed that it would all be ok after contacting their local operators. She even went the extra mile to send me the tickets again with confirmation that it would not be a problem. Thank you Alicia and thank you Headout we had a great time. You do pay more than the face value of event tickets but the ability to source what is needed when needed is invaluable. I would not hesitate to recommend them and will no doubt be using them again.

The visit itself was great. Headout only provided the ticket 1.5 hours before the event started. That was very annoying. Contact with Headout was only via automated reassurance clauses. As I had read many cases on the internet where customers did not receive their tickets from Headout, I was very unsettled. Of course, I was delighted when the tickets did arrive. However, I had already booked a replacement event and had to change my plans again. A theater like this can only be recommended to a limited extent.

Tickets for the Louvre on the day of my interest were no longer available on the museum's official website, and thanks to Headout I was able to find them even though I booked at the last minute. However, the tickets did not arrive immediately after payment and I received them only a couple of hours before my visit to the Louvre. This made me worry but then it was fine.However, the chat assostance service cintinued to answer and reassure me that The tickets would arrive, and they did. I also had some doubts about the tickets but I resolved them by calling the available English-speaking assistance, which answered immediately. I suggest getting in line at the Louvre an hour in advance of the booked time.

What are Paris boat tours?

Paris boat tours are a relaxing and unique way to explore the capital city of France. While the Eiffel Tower and Louvre, lush parks, cobblestone streets, and delicious cheese give you a glimpse of the Parisian culture and lifestyle, the river perspective of the city encapsulates a truly unparalleled perspective of Paris.

There are a variety of Paris boat tours for you to choose from, ensuring something for everyone — be it a sightseeing cruise, a meal, or a combo cruise. While offered by many companies, Bateaux Parisiens and Bateaux Mouches are typically the best at Paris river cruises. Read ahead to learn more about booking your Paris boat tour.

Best time to take a Paris boat tour

Generally, a Paris boat tour is suited to all weather conditions thanks to its closed, air-conditioned boats. But to make the most of your trip to Paris, here's when you should take a Paris Boat Tour:

April to October - These months being the popular season, boat companies have frequent departures and the warm weather makes it pleasant to enjoy the cruise. During windy seasons, you can appreciate the beauty of the river and the cruise experience from your closed boat.

At night - You can watch Paris come to life as the city starts to light up and shimmer like gold around you. Additionally, the first and last departures of the day are usually less crowded and can be a wonderful experience if you're visiting during the high tourist season.

Don't leave Paris without doing this... This is one of the greatest experiences we had while we're in Paris on our honeymoon. From the minute you bought the boat to the minute you leave. It is nothing short of magnificent. The boat is immaculate. The waiters are fantastic. The food was sensational. The wines were great, and the entertainment was exceptional. I could not fault this experience. Well done to all the staff and crew.

Simple online booking, although very negative reviews for headout can be read on the net. I risked it anyway, due to positive experience and YES!!!!!!!, the booked guided tours Eiffel Tower to the top and boat tour on the Seine were a mega experience. What I would particularly like to mention is that after booking I received super good instructions on how everything would proceed. Right down to the last detail and what can I say, that makes a city tour relaxed. Thanks to headout!!!👍 By the way, many thanks to Nihad, our tour guide that day, who managed to bridge the waiting time in a friendly, funny and informative way! THANK YOU!!!

River cruise was a very nice experience (there was a snow storm that day and it was great to be under a roof and still enjoy the views around you). Our Eiffel Tower tour was rescheduled because of the weather conditions and the tower was closed that day. The customer service was really compliant and responsive and they rescheduled the tour really quickly. The instructions to the meeting points were clear and our guide in Eiffel was super friendly and helpful. Really recommend!!
