Montmartre, Le Marais and Seine River Dinner Cruise with CDG Airport Pickup
A private guided journey through Paris's most iconic neighborhoods, ending with a scenic dinner cruise on the Seine.
This private Paris tour with CDG pickup takes you through the artistic streets of Montmartre and the historic district of Le Marais before settling you aboard a dinner cruise on the Seine River. A dedicated chauffeur handles all logistics so you can focus entirely on experiencing the city. The full experience spans six hours, combining cultural exploration with a relaxed two-hour river journey.
Montmartre sits at the highest natural point in Paris, which gives its streets a character unlike anywhere else in the city. Steep cobbled lanes wind past the white-domed Basilica of the Sacre-Coeur, and the square in front of the church opens up to sweeping views over the Parisian rooftops. The area carries a long artistic heritage and retains a village-like atmosphere that sets it apart from the grand boulevards below.
Le Marais is one of the best-preserved historic districts in Paris, layered with centuries of architecture, culture, and community. The Place des Vosges anchors the neighborhood, surrounded by old mansions, intimate streets, independent eateries, and significant Jewish heritage sites. It is also recognized as a center of contemporary Parisian social life, with an energy that feels both historic and current.
The final chapter of the tour is a two-hour cruise with Bateaux Parisiens, departing from Port de Bourdonnais at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. Passengers glide past landmarks including the Assemblee Nationale, Invalides, Musee d'Orsay, Institut de France, and Notre Dame de Paris. Onboard commentary is available in 14 languages, making the experience accessible to visitors from around the world.
