The anti-megaboat: a deck you can walk in three steps. ## Overview Welcome to 2025. A big change in our small family company. After general renovations and replenishment of the fleet, all our boats are luxurious :) From May 2024. all our boats will have a roof to protect against sun and rain :). Our small boat has become luxurious and still accommodates a maximum of 4 passengers, but we also have new boats, larger, more luxurious ones that accommodate 8 passengers. View our boats in the gallery. Enjoy a tourist cruise and beautiful views of the Seine (Statue of Liberty, Eiffel Tower, Pont Alexandre 3, New Bridge, Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris Plage ...) Excellent as a surprise gift to celebrate a birthday or outing with friends. Admire the city of love and lights from the water on this Paris cruise. Embark down the Seine, one of the longest rivers in France, and take in Paris’ sights on the riverside, such as the iconic Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame. Hop on board the boat and get comfortable before taking off from Port Javel Haut ( in Paris city, face Statue Liberte ). Feel free to bring your own snacks and drinks on board to fully enjoy your trip. Pets are also welcome. First, you’ll cruise in front of the Statue of Liberty monument, followed by the Eiffel Tower, the Alexander III Bridge, the Orsay Museum, and the Louvre. The boat will pass under the historic Pont Neuf, Europe's oldest stone bridge and the first bridge in Paris. Just beyond it, you will have a unique view of Notre-Dame Cathedral and the Paris Plages, a famous artificial beach located along the Seine. After your scenic cruise around Paris, return to the Port of Javel Bas. Please download the "Google maps aplication" and open the link I am sending you in message.
