Booking Tips
Here are some tips for booking the optimal Seine River lunch cruise experience in Paris:
- Reserve your cruise tickets directly through the company’s website well in advance for the best rates and guaranteed availability. Popular lunch tours fill up.
- Select your preferred departure time carefully – aim for when you expect to be hungry between other sightseeing plans.
- Specify any food allergies, restrictions, or preferences when booking so the kitchen can accommodate.
- Opt for a table on the upper open deck if available for the best outdoor views during your meal.
- For special occasions, see if you can arrange a celebration package with flowers, gifts, or wine.
- Read reviews of the different companies to choose the meal quality, ambience, and style that suits you.
- Book a private charter lunch cruise for groups, events, or even more intimate 1:1 dining experiences.
- For saving money, consider booking lunch during the off-season or for weekday sailings when fares are lower.
- Triple check the meeting time and boarding location instructions so you don’t miss your cruise.
- Dress nicely – lunch cruises typically have more elegant, refined atmospheres.
Meeting point / Pick-up & drop-off
Most lunch cruise companies depart from docks located centrally along the Seine River. This allows you to simply walk, take a taxi, or use public transport to arrive at your embarkation point.
Popular docks near top attractions like the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame include Port de la Bourdonnais, Port de la Conference, Port Debilly, and Port de Solferino.
When booking, carefully confirm the exact meeting time and departure dock address so you arrive in time for boarding. Arrive 10-15 minutes early. If running late, urgently call or message the provided contact.
At the end of your cruise, the boat will return to the original docking point or a nearby disembarkation jetty. This keeps things centrally located. From here you can walk, hail a taxi, or take the metro to continue sightseeing or return to your hotel.
Some companies offer hotel pick-up/drop-off services within central Paris for an added fee. This provides door-to-door convenience. Just account for potential traffic delays impacting precise timing.
Doing your logistical research and planning in advance results in a smooth embarkation process so you can relax, take your seat, and indulge in French cuisine aboard your Seine lunch cruise.

The Eternal Paris Cruise
Board the bridge Alexander III for a exceptional cruise
The Lunch Cruise is the ideal way to enjoy the calm atmosphere of the banks of the Seine. The meeting point is on the quay opposite the Grand Palais. The captain and deckhand welcome you to the bridge. You’ll then be warmly welcomed by the team on the Ivoire barge, the restaurant boat for the Bistronomic Lunch Cruise. Thanks to the large windows overlooking the river, you can enjoy an aperitif in front of the ever-changing spectacle of the Seine.
The cruise on the Seine begins at the Pont Alexandre III, the most majestic bridge in Paris and a symbol of the Belle Epoque, with its four golden Pegasuses reaching for the sky, before heading for the historic heart of Paris: the Musée d’Orsay and its two great clocks. The Académie Française and the Immortals. The Pont des Arts and lovers. Paris is at its most beautiful on the water.
![title= lunch dinner cruise seine paris](https://eiffelcroisieres.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/IMG_6581-scaled.jpg)
In a friendly atmosphere, the waiters serve the Bistronomic Lunch Cruise throughout the navigation so that you can make the most of the Parisian panorama.
In front of the Ile de la Cité, the Pont-Neuf majestically spans the Seine. As you leave the Petit-Pont, the towers of Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral rise eternally into the Parisian sky.
![title= lunch dinner cruise seine paris](https://eiffelcroisieres.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/MG_0527-scaled.jpg)
A Parisian menu in a convivial restaurant boat atmosphere
The bistronomic menu is renewed throughout the year with seasonal produce. The Chef proposes a tasting menu in the great tradition of Parisian bistro cuisine, with the “tasting plate” as a starter, composed of three dishes combined to awaken the taste buds.
Food and wine pairings have been designed to take you on a culinary and gustatory journey through the French provinces, especially on the wine list. As you pass the Tour d’Argent, a landmark of French gastronomy for over 400 years, the waiters serve your choice of dishes from the à la carte menu.
At the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, the captain turns back, like a slow waltz, to appreciate the night-time panorama across the width of the river. The Bistronomic Lunch Cruise follows the rhythm of navigation.
Book the cruise
![title= lunch dinner cruise seine paris](https://eiffelcroisieres.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/IMG_6733-scaled.jpg)
As they approach Ile Saint Louis, the lovers get closer, for if they make a wish under the Pont Marie, kissing with their eyes closed, it will come true.
Historic Paris flashes before your eyes: L’Hôtel de Ville. The medieval towers of the Conciergerie. The Louvre Museum and its treasures. The Zouave of the Pont de l’Alma. The boat heads for the Eiffel Tower in the Parisian sky, while the “sweet treats” of dessert arrive on the tables.
![title= lunch dinner cruise seine paris](https://eiffelcroisieres.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Pont-scaled-2.jpeg)
Passing in front of the Eiffel Tower, an unforgettable experience
![title= lunch dinner cruise seine paris](https://eiffelcroisieres.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Experience-inoubliable-2.png)
At the Statue of Liberty, the captain smoothly swings the boat around so you can admire the statue holding up the flame of liberty.
Then comes the highlight of the show. The boat’s final passage past the Eiffel Tower. You’ll probably be on the panoramic terrace of the Ivory barge, immortalizing this unforgettable moment and taking full advantage of the Bistronomic Lunch Cruise.

Beautiful cruise around Paris. We saw the most beautiful monuments in Paris while enjoying an excellent meal with a choice for vegetarians. We had a meal with fish, as we eat halal. Very nice welcome from the staff, I thank the whole team for this unforgettable moment.
Review submitted on 30/05/2023
We had a great time with Eiffel Cruises for our son's birthday on Sunday lunchtime. The boat is small and pleasant, so the view of the monuments is excellent, even in the middle of the room. Very well presented and tasty dishes. We were expecting average quality, but this was not the case. Impeccable and very courteous service. Our waitress was very attentive. We recommend this bistronomic cruise for its excellent value, cosy atmosphere and pleasant staff. Paris as magnificent as ever on the Seine!

A romantic dinner aboard the Croisière Prestige with my partner. Perfect for a romantic dinner and a magical moment for two. We had an excellent evening. It's all there, from welcome to return to the dock! Incredible service, not to mention the meal with the wonderful view. We'll return with our eyes shut on our next trip to Paris!

Great evening, the food was good, the atmosphere great and the staff very pleasant, really. The Croisière Bistronomique boat is easy to find. We were able to enjoy our meal at our leisure and go out onto the terrace whenever we wanted to see the monuments. We don't regret taking this cruise at all. It was just fantastic and being so close to the Eiffel Tower. We have nothing but wonderful memories. I highly recommend it. Thank you very much!

Keeping up with the traditions of end-of-week festivities, the cruise is available on weekends only.
Associated with French cafes and Parisian dance halls, the accordion player during lunch service is a real (authentic) treat!
The menu tantalizes with all proteins and meat cuts, from seafood to poultry. We recommend the ‘saithe fillet roasted with seaweed, parsnip and celery mousseline, shellfish jus and herb oil’ main!
Look out for flying mermaids hanging from the ceiling!
3 – Lunch Cruise by Canauxrama
![lunch dinner cruise seine paris Canauxrama Seine River Lunch Cruise](https://imagedelivery.net/0LMYosKeo5o-LXOCjdKUuA/tourscanner.com/2023/10/Canauxrama-Seine-River-Lunch-Cruise.jpg/w=9999)
Celebrating the simplicity of ingredients in the French à la bonne franquette way , the Canauxrama’s Lunch Cruise isn’t just a great option for dining on the Seine, but it’s also a fabulous sightseeing journey.
Expect live onboard commentary from local knowledgeable guides, happy to answer any questions in both English or French.
- Vegetarian option: +€7 per person online or €10 on-site
Fuss-free cooking done the traditional way (classic French cuisine is renowned for its rich flavors)!
Not only limited to indoor dining, we especially love the outdoor upper-deck table options, and in winter, the deck is heated so you can still enjoy a setting under the sun.
You cannot reserve your seats beforehand, which is kind of a bonus, in our humble opinion!
4 – Lunch Cruise by Ducasse sur Seine
![lunch dinner cruise seine paris Ducasse sur Seine lunch cruise, Paris](https://imagedelivery.net/0LMYosKeo5o-LXOCjdKUuA/tourscanner.com/2023/10/Ducasse-sur-Seine-lunch-cruise-Paris.jpg/w=9999)
Glasshouse conservatory? Some sort of unique, fancy gallery? It’s easy to mistake the ultra-chic electric floating restaurant for a modern attraction.
The city’s first eco-friendly river restaurant epitomizes the “haute couture of naval construction.”
Small details make all the difference, as Ducasse sur Seine’s lunch cruise exemplifies — an excellent choice for couples and honeymooners.
- see price & reviews
- 3 Course Lunch: €105
- 3 Course Lunch + Food & Wine Pairing: €160
- 4 Course Lunch + Food & Wine Pairing: €265
- Paris est une fête: €500
Sure, the whole idea of lunching on the river is already special, but when the boat is as pretty as this one, it does make a difference! (And this beauty is gorgeously shaped!)
Board its all-around glass setting and take your pick between a three or four-course meal. For each course, there are multiple options.
Its extensive wine list is the crowning glory for us!
5 – Brunch Cruise by Capitaine Fracasse
![lunch dinner cruise seine paris Capitaine Fracasse Seine River Brunch Cruise](https://imagedelivery.net/0LMYosKeo5o-LXOCjdKUuA/tourscanner.com/2023/10/Capitaine-Fracasse-Seine-River-Brunch-Cruise.jpg/w=9999)
If your favorite meal of the day is brunch, the river cruise with Capitaine Fracasse is for you!
Here come all of the classic, mouth-watering French pastries, from croissants to pain au chocolat, and its selection of savory bites is just as yummy.
Upgrade to a Champagne affair — because that’s the natural way to brunch, isn’t it?
- Brunch: €41
- Champagne Brunch Cruise: €51
Super affordable, we appreciate the fact that the cruise doesn’t cut down on fancy food options — hello, smoked salmon with dill, pressed duck with foie gras and Comté AOP. It doesn’t get more authentic than those French flavors!
Lest we forget about the crêpes as a sweet ending.
The cruise is available on Sundays only, just like your classic Sunday brunch vibes!
6 – Bistronomic Lunch Cruise by Eiffel Croisières
![lunch dinner cruise seine paris Eiffel Croisières Seine River Lunch Cruise](https://imagedelivery.net/0LMYosKeo5o-LXOCjdKUuA/tourscanner.com/2023/10/Eiffel-Croisieres-Seine-River-Lunch-Cruise.jpg/w=9999)
Served three starters, a choice between mains, cheese platters and dessert, it’s a full gastronomic affair with Eiffel Croisières’s Bistronomic Lunch .
It’s a tasting journey through the regions of France, its menu changing with each new season.
Board the Ivoire barge at the foot of one of Paris’ most emblematic bridges, the Beaux-Arts style Pont Alexandre III.
- Bistronomic Lunch: €49
- Bistronomic Lunch with wine: €59
- Bistronomic Lunch with Champagne: €69
This onboard restaurant aims to take guests on a typical French bistro-style culinary journey.
Dishes like tomato panna cotta with basil and cucumber give us a new appreciation for unusual food properties — panna cotta is served sweet, but here, it’s a savory spin.
The food and wine pairings add the final fancy touches.
7 – Prestige Lunch Cruise by Eiffel Croisières
![lunch dinner cruise seine paris Prestige Lunch Cruise by Eiffel Croisières](https://imagedelivery.net/0LMYosKeo5o-LXOCjdKUuA/tourscanner.com/2023/11/Prestige-Lunch-Cruise-by-Eiffel-Croisieres.jpg/w=9999)
Calling all seafood lovers: if you’re searching for a menu celebrating all things under the sea, look no further than Eiffel Croisières’s Prestige Lunch — we’re talking oysters, langoustines, and even seafood towers!
Adding more to the extravaganza are the three lounge options: the Privilege, Premium and VIP Lounges.
- Prestige Lunch: €59
- Prestige Lunch with wine: €69
- Prestige Lunch with Champagne: €79
Choose between its land and sea menus, although we highly recommend the seafood selection. If you’re excited to sample its signature dish (seafood tower), let the restaurant know prior to your cruise.
All the lounges are stunning: an upper deck for the VIPs, bay windows to stare out from the Privilege Lounge or tables at the bow in the Premium Lounge (our favorite).
8 – Lunch Cruise by Calife
![lunch dinner cruise seine paris Calife Seine River Lunch Cruise](https://imagedelivery.net/0LMYosKeo5o-LXOCjdKUuA/tourscanner.com/2023/10/Calife-Seine-River-Lunch-Cruise.jpg/w=9999)
If you’re hunting down a boat locale oozing charm and brimming with all of the enchanting feels, Calife’s lunch cruise is unsurpassable!
Dine downstairs in the music salon, with its grand piano and live jazz musicians; the veranda dazzles with its glass-top roof and interiors decked out in ornate features (like stained-glass light fixtures and vintage wood furnishings); and the terrace option has a retractable roof so you can enjoy no matter the weather.
- Standard: €49
- Salon musique dining: €67
- Salon lounge dining: €87
- Terrace or Veranda dining: €107
- Salon musique dining: €109
- Salon lounge dining: €129
- Terrace or Veranda dining: €149
Modeled after a typical Parisian Salon, like the type you’d stumble upon in the 17th century, this is one of the most unique (and ambient) river boats for a lunch cruise.
Arrive to a cocktail reception, followed by a live concert in the music room, before drifting to your allocated table. We especially love that every seating plan is a spectacular sightseeing moment.
Tip: Grab 50% off on lunch cruises every Thursday and Friday.
9 – Lunch Cruise by Paris Seine
![lunch dinner cruise seine paris Paris Seine Lunch Cruise](https://imagedelivery.net/0LMYosKeo5o-LXOCjdKUuA/tourscanner.com/2023/10/Paris-Seine-Lunch-Cruise.jpg/w=9999)
Onboard the modest Grand Pavois, all guests feel right at home!
With Paris Seine’s lunch cruises , seating plans are all designed on one level (no jealousy issues here), and no matter if you’re sitting in the middle of the boat or at a window table, you’re treated to 360-degree vistas of the Seine and her icons.
- Standard Lunch Cruise: €59
- Romantic Lunch Cruise: €85
The only section of the boat that is covered with solid finishings is the middle strip, so even if you stare upward, there’s magnificent scenery all around you — super cool when navigating beneath the bridges!
A wallet-friendly menu filled with quintessential French ingredients, enjoy the likes of scallops tossed in a Champagne sauce and foie gras served with a pistachio cookie. We just have one thing to say: YUM !
10 – Seine River Lunch Cruise and Eiffel Tower Combo
![lunch dinner cruise seine paris Eiffel Tower and lunch cruise combo](https://imagedelivery.net/0LMYosKeo5o-LXOCjdKUuA/tourscanner.com/2023/11/Eiffel-Tower-and-lunch-cruise-combo.jpg/w=9999)
Don’t just admire the emblem of Paris from out on the water, but get to experience it too with a lunch cruise combo, including a visit to the Eiffel Tower and a climb up its famous steel structures.
Once you’ve journeyed along the Seine, disembark right in front of the Iron Lady, and cruise-dependent, the entire expedition lasts approximately four hours.
It’s the final icing to your French gâteau!
