Seine Cruise Entry Ticket

The most convenient station is Alma-Marceau on Line 9, which is located just a few steps from the boarding ramp. Alternatively, you can take Line 1 to Franklin D. Roosevelt station. From there, it is a pleasant 5-10 minute walk down Avenue Montaigne or along the river, offering a scenic approach to the Seine before you arrive at the Port de la Conférence.

Several bus lines stop very close to the Pont de l'Alma. You can take lines 42, 63, 72, 80, or 92. The "Alma-Marceau" stop drops you right near the entrance on the Right Bank. This is a great option if you want to enjoy street-level views of the upscale 8th arrondissement on your way to the cruise.

The RER C line is one of the fastest ways to arrive, especially if you are coming from the Left Bank or near the Eiffel Tower. You should get off at the Pont de l'Alma station. Once you exit, you simply need to cross the bridge to the Right Bank (about a 5-minute walk) to reach the Bateaux Mouches pier.

Unlike many central Paris attractions, reaching the pier by car is quite convenient. The Bateaux Mouches offers a free parking area for its guests directly at the Port de la Conférence. However, access can sometimes be tricky due to traffic on the quays or special events, so it is advisable to check traffic conditions in advance.

The embarkation point is easily walkable from many major landmarks. It is approximately a 15-minute walk from the Champs-Élysées and about 10-15 minutes from the Eiffel Tower (by crossing the bridge). The walk along the banks of the Seine is a beautiful prelude to the cruise, allowing you to soak in the riverside atmosphere.

The sightseeing cruise lasts approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes, giving you enough time to admire all the major landmarks without taking up your entire day.

You'll sail past Paris's most iconic monuments including the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame Cathedral (fully restored), the Louvre Museum, Musée d'Orsay, Les Invalides, the Conciergerie, Paris City Hall, and the Concorde Obelisk. On clear days, you may even spot the Sacré-Cœur Basilica in the distance.
