Paris, from the Seine
Posted in Discover Paris le
Paris has the Champs-Élysées, Rue de Rivoli and Boulevard Saint-Germain, but many Parisians agree that the most beautiful avenue in the capital is still the Seine. Take the opportunity during your summer break at the Hôtel de la Motte-Picquet to get on board and discover a different way of seeing the architectural treasures that line the city’s world-famous river.
Take the cruise that suits you best
Although the Bateaux-Mouches company has made cruises on the Seine famous, today it is far from being the only provider to offer trips on the legendary waterway. Vedettes de Paris, for example, present options ranging from guided tours in 14 languages to an aperitif cruise hosted by a DJ, as well as family excursions with games and entertainment. At your own pace, you can learn about the fascinating history of Paris and its monuments or simply savour the beauty of the view while enjoying a cocktail or a glass of champagne.
Special occasions on the Seine
Want to celebrate a birthday? Pop the question? Or simply enjoy a perfect romantic interlude with your loved one? Elle Est Sur la Seine invites you aboard its elegant private hire boats. As you recline on a leather banquette upon the teak deck, Paris will glide by before your eyes to the rhythm of the river. Of course, the services can be adapted to suit you and yours. Finally, Yachts de Paris invites you to host your events on the Seine. Thanks to their fleet of luxurious craft, they present the opportunity to hold your wedding, reception, seminar, or other event in the most fascinating of settings.
During your stay at the Hôtel de la Motte-Picquet, treat yourself to a refreshing cruise on the most beautiful avenue in the city. Our team will be happy to tell you about the various options available.
