Vedettes du Pont Neuf

It never gets old doing the sunset cruise. This company is particularly good. Our presenter was very personable, perfect timing in his talks. Weather was clear and cool, but not cold. Nature and service worked well to make the one hour cruise a great success! Pro tip, go ahead and get your drink in the first few minutes of the cruise so that you don’t have to interrupt your enjoyment during the good stuff.

The tour was a perfect way to see the city, and I loved the French and English translations. I learned so much and the ride was so pleasant. There is plenty of time to take pictures of the sites, especially the Eiffel. Sit on the left side for the best views! *We took the 7:30 tour.

We took a one hour tour boat along the Seine River in Paris, and it was a fantastic experience. The guide was excellent, explaining all the landmarks in great detail in both French and English. It’s also the most affordable tour option on the river, offering great value for the experience. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to see Paris from a different and beautiful perspective!

We booked tickets for this cruise online at the Vedettes du Pont Neuf website for the day we arrived in Paris from the US. We scheduled the 9:45 PM (21:45) cruise so that we could be sure to see the Eiffel Tower in all its shining and twinkle lights glory! And did we ever! Our tour guide that evening (so sorry, forgot his name...but one of the photos should help ID him) was wonderful—chock full of information and humor in a delightful way! Online ticketing months prior was easy! Finding the dock was easy! Finding restrooms nearby while waiting in line to board, not so much (they are available on the boat but no one told us we could access them before the cruise!). We met folks from other countries, held each other’s places in line to accommodate restroom searching and then boarded our boat. Departure was right on time, general seating allowed for inside or outside (must use stairs) viewing, beverages were available for purchase, and restrooms were easily available. The cruise itself was absolutely lovely…seeing the major sights with evening lights provided the Parisian magic we were hoping for! We highly recommend this cruise!

We took the evening tour and really enjoyed it. The humorous guide really made it. Plenty of banter whilst guiding us through the Paris monuments. We booked online about an hour before to ensure we had a place as we headed towards the river. All seats are suitable for viewing and the boat is a good size compared to the oversized Bateaux Mouches..

Pretty good! €15pp this is a clean, easy to find and book with upstairs (outside) and downstairs seating and a guide giving you facts and a cafe. It’s a lovely way to see the city and we saw the Eiffel Tower sparkle. I would recommend!

We had a lovely evening boat tour with Vedettes du Pont Neuf. We sat on the top level of the boat and enjoyed a glass of champagne as we toured the Seine. We passed the Eiffel Tower on the way back just as it was being lit, and after the tour, we walked up on the bridge to wait for it to start sparkling. The tour company played music during the tour, and you could even request songs. It was lovely, and I would highly recommend.

I've done this tour of the river many times. This is something I enjoy every time I'm in town. There was plenty of seating when I visited. The tour takes about an hour and pretty much runs on time. The tour guide spoke French and English. She did a good job of pointing out the highlights. There is a restroom at the entry by the ticket counter (but not on the boat). It is a nice way to get an overview of the city. The price has increased.
