First rate dining experience - The food was exceptional. Far better than I had expected for such a large number of people. The wine, too, was extremely good. The accordion player added the jollity.

Wonderful birthday treat - We'll organised check in and comfortable waiting area. Very short walk to the boat and being shown to our table which was beautifully set. Excellent service and the menu options were varied. Food hot and tasty, service very good and wine chilled perfectly. As the weather was gloriously sunny this added up to the perfect lunch. Paris in October was at her best.

Worth the price - We had the reservations, but understanding where to go once we got to the boat landing would have been nice. You do want to get there by noon to check in and board. Our views were great. The lunch and wine were nice. A bit more information about what we were seeing would have been nice. The wait staff was very nice. They were out of Coca Cola on our trip. It was nice

Never Again Will I use Bateaux Mouches - A Seine River cruise has always been a highlight of our several visits to Paris. We were really looking forward to our first time on Bateaux Mouches. Contrary to some other reviews, the boarding process was organized and smooth. When our server came to the table with a single bottle of white wine, we asked where the red wine was for my wife. In the advertisement we purchased the cruise from it said we would get a half bottle per passenger. We called a manger over and she corrected the problem.
The food was almost inedible. As one other review said, a frozen meal would have been better. We had chicken which must have been prepared yesterday and kept in the open air!
As to price, the $88.00 price on the Trip Advisor site I am posting this from was 110.00 Euro on the site I purchased the trip on.
Next time I will read the Trip Advisor reviews before booking.

Highly unsafe ! - We would highly dissuade people from joining this tour . The queues were not controlled , people were pushing against each other and there was no count of the people boarding the ship. It looked very unsafe . We left asking for a refund because of no guarantee of safety , nor organization , no safe space between people.
