By Boat
Seine Cruises
Several companies run one-hour boat cruises on the Seine. For the best experience, cruise
at twilight or after dark. (To dine while you cruise, see “Dinner Cruises” on here . ) Two
of the companies—Bateaux-Mouches and Bateaux Parisiens—are convenient to the Rue
Cler hotels, and both run daily year-round (April-Oct 10:00-22:30, 2-3/hour; Nov-March
shorter hours, runs hourly). Some offer discounts for early online bookings.
Bateaux-Mouches, the oldest boat company in Paris, departs from Pont de l'Alma's
right bank and has the biggest open-top, double-decker boats (higher up means better
views). But this company caters to tour groups, making their boats jammed and noisy
(€12.50, kids 4-12-€5.50, tel. 01 42 25 96 10, www.bateaux-mouches.fr ).
