I booked this experience for our last night in Paris as a special way to propose to my girlfriend (now fiancé!) Edouard was our captain for the 8:00 P.M. boat ride and it was an experience that we will remember for the rest of our lives. Even before booking,(…)
Unique and Spectacular. It was quick to see how special this booking was, not just because it is a private tour (although that was awesome), but we observed quickly that is very uncommon. We stepped onboard a gem. Axel’s niche for private tours on the Siene is(…)
Once in a lifetime private boat tour down the Seine. No crowds. We only saw one other private boat and saw things you can never see on land. You pass by the very crowded other boats. The boat was in excellent condition and the captain was excellent. Highly highly recommend!
This is incredible. The ride is relaxing and scenic. The host is chill and benevolent. The Seine in general is a great time. Makes for a memorable night in (and around) the city.
Who are we?
Boat in Paris’s proud background starts in 2016 when Axel bought his first boat. Realizing that there was not a single place to rent boats in Paris, he decided to invest in one and to make it available for locals to rent. Demand grew quickly, but many locals and tourists didn’t have the specific licence to operate boats on French Inland Waters, so the boat had to be certified as a passenger boat to make a commercial use of it with a captain (note: this proved to be an administrative headache!).
Now with the correct certifications, he was able to have guests on the boat and quickly gained a reputation as being the only small boat cruising Paris, delivering an amazing travel experience for tourists and locals. The first boat was replaced by a brand new one in 2019, and two more were bought to rent and make tours with very small groups. Other pilots joined the team in 2020, handpicked due to their enthusiasm for Paris. We always want to keep things small and simple, away from the huge crowed boats and closer to our passengers, sharing stories and laughs with everyone while bringing the most personalized experience there is on the river.
