    We will be visiting in September last week. Which boat cruise do you recommend if we want the sunset view and Eiffel tower sparkling. Also, closest to Opera area.

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  4 месяца назад

      All companies have sunset cruises with view of the sparling Eiffel Tower. The closest to the Opéra would be Vedettes du Pont Neuf : take métro Line 7 to station Pont Neuf.

    by the way which one are you recommend between Bateaux Mouches and Bateaux Parisien?
    I have 5 people with me and 1 year old that often cry, i prefer if it's not too crowded.

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  8 месяцев назад

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  4 месяца назад

      A sunset cruise or a dinner cruise?
      This week, the sunset will be between 8:30 and 8:45 PM.
      So any cruise starting at 8 PM will be perfect.
      Choose the company with regards to the best location for you: Bateaux Parisiens and Vedettes de Paris start at the Eiffel Tower, Bateaux Mouches at Pont d'Iena, and Vedettes du Pont Neuf from the Pont Neuf.
      The last two are more easily accessible from a metro station.
      Kids before 4 years old will not pay...

    @aleksandrapreziosi4129 5 месяцев назад

    We are in Paris 17-19 August. We were planning to go for evening dinner cruise but seems like they all depart a bit early. Could you please recommend? The Eiffel Tower glittering is a must for us, so I guess should be around 9-10 pm? I also was looking for the open space instead on the deck instead inside but can’t find anything like that :)

    • @paristoptips
      @paristoptips  5 месяцев назад

      When you're in Paris, the sun will set at 9 PM precisely, so the tower might be glittering at 9 and will absolutely be at 10 and 11 PM.
      With Paris weather, cruises are almost over with tables inside the boat. Some boat offer a terrace where you can stand, but, as we are in France, that's the place where people will go to enjoy a cigarette.
      Whatever cruise you choose, I would opt for those starting at 8:30 PM.
      One last thing: In many places along the way, the stands set up for the Olympic opening ceremony will still be there, which, quite honestly, will spoil a lot of the romantic view of Paris you might hope to get!

      Well, I don't subscribe to Christianity but I have learnt BC and AD, and I'll continue to use them as for me CE and BCE are hypocritical as they arguably imposes a “Christian” time reckoning on non-Christians under the guise of “Common Era.”
