Paris City Tour with Dinner Cruise

7-Hour Paris Tour with Seine River Dinner Cruise and Wine Tasting

A full day discovering iconic Parisian landmarks, followed by a romantic dinner on the Seine and a guided French wine tasting session.


This Paris city tour with dinner cruise combines a five-hour panoramic drive through the French capital with a two-hour Seine River dinner cruise and a dedicated wine tasting experience. Pickup is directly from your hotel, making the entire day seamless and stress-free. It is an ideal choice for first-time visitors who want to cover the city's highlights without the pressure of navigating independently.

The panoramic tour takes you past the most celebrated monuments in Paris, including the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, the Louvre pyramid, Opera Garnier, Place de la Concorde, and the Avenue des Champs-Elysees. Your expert driver provides context and insider commentary at each stop, giving you a genuine sense of the city's history and character. Photo stops are included at key locations so you can document the experience at your own pace.

After the city tour, you are dropped at the boat pier near the Eiffel Tower, where you board a two-hour dinner cruise along the Seine River. The cruise passes landmarks such as the Musee d'Orsay, the Invalides, the Institut de France, and Notre Dame, all while you enjoy a meal onboard with commentary available in multiple languages. Following the cruise, you make your own way back to your hotel.

The wine tasting session introduces you to the diversity of French wines through a guided tasting led by a specialist. You will leave with a broader understanding of the regional wine classifications and the characteristics that distinguish them. This combination of sightseeing, fine dining, and cultural education makes for a well-rounded introduction to Paris.

The driver takes you along the Avenue des Champs-Elysees, a two-kilometre stretch lined with luxury boutiques, flagship stores, and notable museums.
