Montmartre and Seine River Dinner Cruise with Hotel Pickup in Paris

A private guided journey through the most celebrated districts of Paris, crowned by a scenic dinner cruise along the Seine.


This Montmartre and Seine River dinner cruise brings together two of the most captivating Parisian experiences in a single six-hour private tour. A dedicated chauffeur collects you directly from your hotel and guides you through neighborhoods that have defined the character of the city for centuries.

The tour moves through Montmartre, a hillside district recognized for its winding cobblestone streets, historic mansions, and the commanding white dome of the Sacré-Coeur Basilica. Because of its position at the highest natural point in the city, the area offers sweeping panoramic views across Paris that few other vantage points can match.

Le Marais adds a contrasting dimension to the itinerary. This district is home to the elegant Place des Vosges, narrow medieval lanes, centuries-old churches, and a vibrant culinary scene that includes long-established Jewish eateries and contemporary bistros.

The journey concludes aboard a Bateaux Parisiens cruise on the Seine, gliding past landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, the Musée d'Orsay, the Invalides, and Notre Dame de Paris. Onboard commentary is available in fourteen languages, allowing guests from around the world to follow the history of each monument as it passes.
