Paris Tootbus tour with an optional Seine cruise

Cruise-inclusive options feature a one-hour sailing operated by Vedettes de Paris. Boarding takes place at Port de Suffren beside the Eiffel Tower, making it easy to combine both parts of the experience.

The Seine cruise is not included with every ticket. Make sure it is explicitly listed in your selected option before booking and allow enough time to reach the boarding point.

It is particularly useful for first-time visitors, families hoping to reduce long walks and travellers who want to see several landmarks in limited time. The flexible route also makes it easy to adjust your plans and combine open-top sightseeing with a Seine cruise.

It may suit you less if you only need the cheapest transport, prefer a live guided tour, plan to visit one specific attraction or are travelling in very hot weather. Traffic can also affect journey times and service frequency.
