Your guide to New York City

Do you dream of Christmas or summer in New York? Well, you're far from alone-these are the peak periods for tourism here. If you're happy to brave the competition for affordable accommodations, these times of year are wonderful. But spring and fall are no less special, and come with the bonus of shorter lines at popular attractions. In our view, any time is a great time for a bite of the Big Apple, so why not pick one of the cheaper months?

New York City is a place to look your coolest, so bring your most interesting (though not necessarily your fanciest) outfits. There are some other items it pays to pack, too:

  • A camera: Does this go without saying? It should. New York has one of the most striking cityscapes there is, and most phone cameras can't capture that.
  • A backpack: It's by far the safest and most practical way of toting all your bits and pieces around the city. Use it to carry your...
  • Layers: Outside of summer, you'll want a sweater or a light jacket on hand, at a bare minimum. And the depths of winter require a coat, hat and scarf.

There are very good reasons why the New York City subway is so well loved. It really is easy to use, plus it runs all night. Get yourself a MetroCard as soon as you arrive and getting from A to B will be a breeze. Your MetroCard will also cover bus travel, which will likely come in handy a few times during your visit. And of course, when you're in a hurry, you can always hail one of those unmistakable yellow cabs or use a ridesharing app.

Had an awesome time. Great way to let your feet rest from all the walking. We even got to bring our pup & he loved it. Had a nice glass of wine and enjoyed the breeze from the water. I recommend this tour it’s a different way to see the monuments and memorials without walking a million miles.

-Alexis Suarez

We had an amazing time! We scheduled the Crab Boat for a ladies day out on the Potomac. The crew was very friendly and funny. The Captain played great music. The crabs were delicious! Even the side dishes were good. The weather was perfect. We would definitely cruise with them again.

Seine River Night Cruise Tickets Prices

Seine River night cruise ticket prices in Paris can vary greatly depending on the length, inclusions and level of luxury of the specific cruise. Most basic 1-hour sightseeing cruises run €15-25 per person. These typically don’t include any extras beyond a seat to view Paris lit up at night. 

For a more exclusive experience, multi-course dinner cruises can cost anywhere from €60 up to €150 or more per guest. These 2-3 hour cruises include gourmet meals paired with the iconic views. Drinks packages with wine or champagne often cost additional.

There are many companies operating Seine River cruises with differing offerings in terms of entertainment, food and length. Thus, prices are dependent on the exact cruise selected. Factors like having an exterior seat, live music or a longer cruise can mean paying more. 

Booking in advance, even just a few days, can secure discounted rates compared to last-minute walk-up ticket prices. Private boat charters for small groups are another option, starting at €100-150 per person but increasing based on customizations. 

To summarize – basic sightseeing night cruises can be found for budget prices around €15, while lavish dinner and entertainment cruises run over €100 per passenger. Booking ahead online is recommended for best availability and rates.

Where You Should Buy The Tickets?

The best way to purchase Seine night cruise tickets is through well-known platforms that offer advance tickets and discounts. Some of the most popular ones are “ Tiqets ” which is considered a very well-known online tickets platform, or “ Getyourguide ” which is also a very popular website.

Another good way, is to buy tickets online in advance through the cruise company’s website. This ensures you get a spot on the cruise you want, at the time you want. Many companies offer small discounts or priority boarding when you book online ahead of time. This is especially useful in peak tourist season when cruises sell out. 

Another option is to purchase tickets in-person once you arrive in Paris. Many cruise companies have ticket kiosks or booths set up along the river, like near the Eiffel Tower. This allows you to buy last minute if needed. However, the most popular evening cruises can and will still sell out onsite, so booking early online is still advised when possible.

Some hotel concierge desks also sell cruise tickets or can refer you to riverboats they work with regularly. Prices are generally the same as direct through the cruise company. This just serves as an convenience if you’d prefer to book all Paris activities through your hotel.

Lastly, if you’ll be in Paris for multiple days, you can wait to buy a cruise ticket for a day when the weather forecast looks best. Rainy evenings might get you ticket discounts last minute! Just know availability isn’t guaranteed if you walk up day-of. Advance online purchase is still the surest way to secure Seine River night cruise seats at the best possible price.

Evening Cruise in Paris - Top Sights You'll See

Evening seine cruise route.

The cruises embark from one of several docks located between the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral . Some of the major departure docks include Pont de l’Alma near the Eiffel Tower, Port de la Bourdonnais close to the Pont de l’Alma metro, Port du Gros Caillou southwest of the tower, and Port Saint-Michel near Notre-Dame.

Upon departure, the boats sail east along the Seine towards Notre Dame Cathedral. This stretch passes iconic sites including the Louvre Museum and Musée d’Orsay which are beautifully illuminated at night. Further along, boats may slow down to appreciate the glowing Pont Alexandre III bridge and the golden flame of the Statue of Liberty replica on Île aux Cygnes.

Upon reaching Notre Dame Cathedral on Île de la Cité island, boats execute a turnaround before heading back west towards the Eiffel Tower. More top Paris landmarks visible include the ornate Hôtel de Ville, the historic Conciergerie and the Île Saint-Louis island noted for its 17th century architecture.

The cruise ultimately concludes back at the original embarkation dock near the Eiffel Tower after the approximate 1 hour roundtrip. Disembarking passengers can opt to ascend the iconic tower for glittering nighttime views. Check an individual cruise company’s website for specific route maps and timings.

  • Plan Your Trip

When planning a Seine River evening cruise in Paris, keeping a close eye on the weather is advised:

Rain and wind can put a damper on an open-air sightseeing cruise along the river. While most boats have interior cabins, the prime views are from the uncovered upper decks. Thus precipitation may obstruct your Paris city vista or force you indoors if unprepared. Always check an hourly forecast and bring weather appropriate layers and umbrellas just in case.

Additionally, rain or cloud cover can diminish the romantic ambience that the City of Light is famed for at night. The illuminations and reflections off the water may not be as brilliant on an overcast evening versus clear skies at dusk.

Fortunately, many cruises operate daily spring through fall. Having some flexible dates allows you to reschedule if the forecast looks unfavorable on a given night. Popular dinner and sightseeing boats also tend to have covered glass roofs as a safeguard if showers blow through unexpectedly.

In terms of comfort, warmer summer nights are ideal for lingering on outer decks in short sleeves, while frigid winter cruises call for heavy jackets and maybe gloves. Scope average low temps if cruising between November and March when the weather shifts.

Most Seine River evening sightseeing cruises and dinner cruises in Paris take place between 7 PM and 11 PM daily. However, there are some variations:

  • Shorter 1-hour sightseeing cruises typically have more departure times spaced closer together in the 7 PM – 9:30 PM range so tourists can enjoy a quick river view after dinner or other activities.
  • Multi-course dinner cruises onboard specialty restaurant boats often only have one sailing per evening, with boarding starting between 7 PM and 7:30 PM. The meal duration then fills up most of the 2-3 hour experience.
  • Some companies may offer a later limited schedule on Saturdays with 11 PM or midnight departures in the summer months when sunset is later. These capture the glittering city lights at peak illumination.
  • Lunch cruises are also available on most boats during the daytime along with breakfast cruises as early as 9:30 AM. But romantic evening tours are the main draw.
  • Many dinner cruise ships have their own resident musicians providing live entertainment during the evening sailings as well. Entertainment varies from jazz trios to quartets playing classical or traditional French music.

When booking a Seine River evening cruise in Paris, there are a few common duration options to consider:

The shortest sightseeing cruises are usually 1 hour long. These provide a quick tour along the illuminated river, often with multilingual commentary about the iconic landmarks visible. Travel is roundtrip from the departure dock to east past Notre Dame and back.

For a more in-depth experience, many companies offer longer sightseeing tours ranging from 1.5 hours up to 2 hours in length. These may traverse a longer stretch of the river at a more leisurely pace, or make brief photo stops at landmarks like the Eiffel Tower and the Pont Alexandre III bridge.

Multi-course dinner cruises tend to be 2-3 hours to blend gourmet cuisine with the Seine’s vistas. These might only travel half the route before turning around to serve dinner during the second half when westbound. 3 full hours with departure around 7 PM enables seeing monuments both in dusk and fully lit up after dark.

Additionally, some operators have half-day or full-day “hop on hop off” style river passes allowing you to board multiple short tours over several hours or days.

When embarking on a Seine River evening cruise in Paris, there are a handful of main departure docks to launch from. Some of the most popular and centrally located are:

Port de la Bourdonnais – Close to the Eiffel Tower metro and walking distance southwest of the landmark itself in the 7th arrondissement. It offers quick access for shorts cruises by the iconic tower and surrounding areas.

Port du Gros Caillou – Another dock situated at the base of the Eiffel Tower, at the east entrance to the Champs de Mars park nearby. Also home to longer dinner boats.

Pont de l’Alma – A third embarkation point near the Eiffel Tower, next to the Pont de l’Alma bridge across the Seine. Gateway to western routes by the Trocadéro Gardens and Statue of Liberty replica.

Port Saint-Michel – An eastern dock located on the Left Bank near Saint-Michel metro and Notre Dame Cathedral. Provides eastern access towards Ile Saint Louis and the Latin Quarter.

There are also centrally located ports like Port Debilly between the Louvre and Orsay museums for routes in either direction.
