Our cruise departing from Notre-Dame begins along the Seine’s quays, passing by the Hôtel de Ville before revealing the Conciergerie, a former royal residence that became a prison during the Revolution.
Your boat tour continues, taking you to the Louvre, once the residence of the kings of France before becoming the largest museum in the world.
The boat then heads toward Place de la Concorde, where the magnificent obelisk from Egypt stands at its center. You will learn more about this historic site, which was also a major landmark of the French Revolution.
Your boat ride continues toward the Grand Palais, a 19th-century architectural masterpiece recognized by its stunning glass roof. Take a moment to admire this venue, now home to major exhibitions and cultural events in Paris.
In the distance, the Arc de Triomphe appears, built to honor Napoleon’s victories, standing proudly at the top of the famous Champs-Élysées. Then, the Palais de Chaillot comes into view, offering a stunning perspective of the much-anticipated Eiffel Tower!
The highlight of this magnificent cruise from Notre-Dame unfolds as the iconic Eiffel Tower gradually comes into view, a universal symbol of Paris and France. In the background, you’ll also spot the Statue of Liberty, a reminder of the strong ties between France and the United States.
The boat then begins its return journey, passing by Les Invalides, with its recognizable golden dome, where Napoleon Bonaparte rests.
On the way back, you will also catch sight of the Assemblée Nationale, with its neoclassical silhouette, a true symbol of French democracy. Shortly after, the former Orsay Palace, now one of the world’s most renowned museums for Impressionist art, will reveal itself in all its splendor.
Your boat ride on the Seine will then continue along the quays toward the Institut de France, home to the French Academy, whose elegant dome embodies the country’s intellectual and artistic excellence.
Finally, the journey gently comes to an end in front of Notre-Dame, welcoming you one last time before you step back onto the riverbank. Take a moment to cast a final glance at the Seine and its treasures!
