About this tour
A 90-minute private voyage along the Seine aboard a contemporary yacht, gliding past Paris's architectural landmarks from water level. You'll navigate beneath iconic bridges—Alexandre III, Pont Neuf, Pont des Arts—whilst passing the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame, the Statue of Liberty replica, and the Conciergerie. The perspective from the river reveals the city's monumental heritage in ways ground-level sightseeing cannot match.

What to expect
The yacht departs and steadily works its way along the Seine's central reach, moving at a pace that allows unrushed observation. You'll be on deck or in protected cabin areas as the boat glides beneath low bridges—the clearance is tight enough to feel the architecture's scale overhead. Monuments emerge and recede in sequence: the Conciergerie's fortress-like walls, Notre-Dame's flying buttresses, then the Eiffel Tower's iron lattice filling your view. The journey is calm and contemplative rather than thrilling; the Seine's current is mild and the yacht handles smoothly.
