The river cruise was absolutely fantastic, the weather wasn't great but we were sheltered under the roof and very comfortable. The views were breathtaking. However, the bus trip afterwards was not that good as we were sitting on the right hand side and couldn't see much. Make sure you take a seat on the left side as then you can see everything. I would definitely recommend the river cruise.

Nice cruise. The bus ride was decent, but I did not get to see enough of the sites. A quick drive by of the monuments with some on the opposite side of the bus left me wanting more.

The river cruise was fantastic but you can skip the Paris Illuminations as you get to see only from the bus.

The boat is huge and covered so it's fine even if it rains. The tour is really nice and provides excellent opportunities for nice pictures of Paris at night.

Paris is gorgeous at night.

It was a very good experience riding the double decker bus and the ferry at night. City of Lights is at its best at night! However, they don't provide transportation back to your hotel.

The cruise along the Seine was fantastic. The bus tour was good, however, one side of the bus right side seemed to always be facing away from the sites so we missed a few. Overall, however, a good trip, with very good guides.

The weather let us down so the cruise was a bit cold and wet. But on a balmy summer evening it would have been lovely. The boats are huge, seating around 100 people. Next time I will book dinner on board one of the other cruises.

It was quite cold the night we did the cruise. We managed to get seats next to a window which ensured I had a good view. Unfortunately the family were all too tired to enjoy the experience as much as I did. We decided not to do the bus trip after the river cruise. It was great to see Paris lit up at night and to get an idea of where everything was in relation to each other.

Make sure to eat before the tour. No option to take photos.

Boat trip on Seine was fine. Paris beautiful at night. The bus part of the trip was too long.

I enjoyed my trip to Paris and Disneyland very much. I had my 14-year-old niece with me for company. We went in July and the heat was unbearable - 105°F but luckily our room had aircon so at least we could sleep. We did this cruise along the Seine, caught a hop on / hop off bus that I thought was excellent value and used the Metro.
