The river cruise is run by the two operators to give an absolutely charming and different experience from the regular boat cruises on the Seine. A great thing to do on lazy Mondays when most museums are closed. But this tour is hardly fast, so it is not for those rushing for time to explore Paris!

We had the best time on the River Canal Cruise. The cruise director was fun and friendly and definitely made our trip.

A little hot, bring some beverages if you go in the summer. Very interesting tour, also a very nice park Vilette at the departure point. Get there early so you can sit at the bow. Watch out for the kids on the shore with water pistols as you are sitting in the locks.

We thoroughly enjoyed this trip. On the canal we saw Paris from a very different angle. The guide was very informative and the trip was good value for money.

A little slow because of the number of locks to go through, but very interesting, and the guide's commentary was excellent.

Fantastic narrator, brought the river and canals to life, loved the added bonus of him playing sax whilst going through the tunnel.

The tour was lovely, the guide friendly and informative. The route takes you through some areas that you don't usually see if you stick to the tourist highlights and gives you some new insights into the city and its history.

It was really enjoyable seeing all the sights of Paris while slowly cruising along Seine river. It got a tad boring after a while, but that's just me. Overall, it's a great experience.

The tour was very interesting mainly because the guide was witty, informative, and pleasant. The area visited was more interesting than I anticipated. I highly recommend this tour.

This was a good trip, but it was almost impossible to find the departure point - no map or clear instructions were given, and even the taxi driver didn't know exactly where it was.

A great way to see some of the buildings along the Seine plus areas of Paris from the canal that are not normally visited.
