Things to know before booking your cruise 

  • For lunch cruises, you can choose between a French or Italian menu, depending on the operator. The Italian menu includes dishes such as red tuna crudo, artichoke carpaccio, veal, bass fillet, and exotic pavlova. Meanwhile, the French menu offers selections like chicken and chestnut pâté, salmon steak, duck foie gras, and pralinette choux puff.
  • There are various operators that cater to different lunch cruise experiences. With options starting as low as €65 that comes with regular seating, beverages and 3-course lunch, premium options starting at €95 include a 4-course meal and the best tables on the boat– near the window or right at the front for uninterrupted views of the city.
  • While all seats offer beautiful daytime glimpses aboard the Seine River lunch cruise, you can choose to get tables that come with unobstructed views. The seating near the windows and at the front of the boat are priced higher than the ones at the center, so you can pick the ones that suit your budget and preferences.
  • Seine River lunch cruises tend to sell out quickly, especially during the peak summer weekends. Book your tickets at least a week in advance to get the cruise of your choice.
