The Seine was not built in the heart of Paris, but this French city was built around it. Not just a vital source of water, this river also has views of some of the city’s most famous landmarks. You can sit back and take a tour around Paris marveling at its architectural wonders and romantic ambiance by booking a Seine River Cruise.
Notre Dame, the Eiffel Tower, the Musée d’Orsay, Grand Palais, Petit Palais, Pont Alexandre III, Île de la Cité, and even some of the Louvre Museum are all visible from the water. A little touristy but a great way to explore Paris if you’re on a time crunch.
The Seine River cruise is an activity that can be done in any season and in most weathers; rain or sun, cold or hot, this is one thing to do in Paris all year round. No matter when you plan your trip to the beautiful city of lights, a cozy tour is always available.
Fun fact: Popular figures like Van Gogh, Claude Monet, and Napoleon Bonaparte once resided along the river’s banks. Additionally, it served as the inspiration for some well-known impressionist paintings.
