4.Illuminated Evening River Cruise & Waffle Tasting

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 2,697 reviews · 1 hour · from $22

Cruise the Seine from Port de la Bourdonnais as Paris lights up around you. See Notre-Dame, the Louvre, Musée d’Orsay, and glittering bridges from a glass cabin or open deck, then enjoy one fresh waffle with sugar or chocolate at Les Terrasses du Trocadéro. Boarding is flexible, but the waffle stop is separate.

“The cruise was awesome at night. We had to wait until the last boat in order to benefit from night lights along the Seine. The boat was very big so lots of people, but it was fun with people shouting and hailing us from the shore. Only problem was we pitched up without having gone for a waffle, as we didn't want one, and as a result it was tricky to get a code to get on then boat. This was not so clear on the instructions. Otherwise I would recommend.”
