For a different view and experience of Paris, this tour is highly recommended. However, I think that journey would be even better starting with the canals and finishing in the Seine all the locks at the end can become a bit tedious. The host tells a wonderful story along the way, his sense of humour is delightful and his musical performance is charming.

Very good and interesting trip. It was rather hot on open deck, could have done with some shade. The views were good and going through the tunnel was excellent.

The guide was excellent - he told many interesting stories both in French and English. Even in the tunnel he played clarinet! More instructions at the end on where the Metro was would have been useful, but this was a minor point.

An English guide does a brilliant commentary in English and French and is 'the ghost in the tunnel.' And he has time to serve the drinks on board. Worth the trip just to listen to him and and his music! Best value for money experience in Paris!!

Very interesting part of Paris that people seldom see. The meeting point was difficult to find and could have been marked better, but the tour was excellent.

I had no idea about the canals in Paris before this trip, and it gave us a really different view of Paris. We also had a fantastic guide and a wonderful concert in the tunnels underneath Paris. I would really recommend this trip to anyone that wants to do something a bit different on their visit to Paris. It was a lot of fun!

Good trip. I've always wanted to take a canal cruise in Paris, and this was plenty of fun. We saw a lot of Paris that we wouldn't have seen otherwise, including some great neighborhoods.

What a great value! You go through the locks, which is really interesting, and the Seine is amazing.

This was very relaxing and informative. It was great to see the slow side of the city. I've never been in locks before, and it was interesting to see the working side of the canal. We got some beautiful pictures of Notre Dame.

I liked the concert under the streets.

I didn't know Paris has underground canals, and a portion of this cruise was underground. Most of the trip was travelling through the canals, which have a lock system that I found interesting. There were many good photo ops along the way. If you are looking for something new or different to do in Paris, try this cruise.
