“The boat was nice, entertainment was great and this was a unique way to see the sights of Paris at night. But overall, the value was not there for our family of 4. We purchased the premiere seating and didn't feel the quality of food, wine or the service provided equaled the price tag we paid for this 3 hour evening. (over $1200)”

Board Le Diamant Bleu at 2 Rue du Ranelagh for a three-course meal, live singer and guitarist, and a DJ set. The route passes the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, Notre-Dame, and other landmarks. Singer Anastasia has performed on board, though the lineup can vary. Check the departure time carefully: the published schedule contains a confusing time conflict.

“Fantastic evening on the boat, we were on it for over 3 hours, nice and relaxing, fantastic views, food was nice but bit sweet on each course, sweet pumpkin soup, sweet potato mash then lots of cream on meringue. The VIP seats were worth paying for in my opinion, best views and comfier chairs, however we did go on top deck a lot for the views and to take pics as it was a lovely evening so do not necessarily need to pay for window seat. Not worth paying for the champagne option, there is good wine choice 30-40 euros for bottle wine. Teenagers had mocktail at 10 euros and…”
