Drift past Notre-Dame, the Musée d'Orsay and the Eiffel Tower on a private gourmet lunch cruise along the Seine — the most elegant way to absorb Paris's grand riverside architecture while sipping premier cru Burgundy.
What to expect
Board at the foot of the Eiffel Tower at Port de la Bourdonnais and settle into your reserved window table as the barge glides eastward. Sommelier-paired wines accompany starters of foie gras terrine before a perfectly seared duck breast arrives as the Île de la Cité slides into view. The Cathédrale Notre-Dame — freshly restored after the 2019 fire — rises magnificently off the port bow. Dessert and café arrive as you drift back toward the tower at golden hour.
Good to know
Lunch cruises depart around 12:30 and last ~2.5 hours. Book a window table specifically when reserving online — they are limited and highly sought after. Combine with an Eiffel Tower visit in the same day; the boarding point is steps from the tower's South Pillar.
