An open-top terrace boat with a bar and background music, blankets available in cooler weather, one glass of organic wine, Champagne or a soft drink included, departing from Pont Neuf rather than the Eiffel Tower or Notre-Dame.
The sailing lasts about 1 hour and is built around the hour when Paris starts to glow: bridges, the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower area take on their evening illuminations as the boat moves along the river (see Which river cruise is the best in Paris?).
France Tourisme operates the cruise, which holds a 4 rating across 544 reviews. One drink, Champagne or a soft option, is part of the ticket.
