Experience Paris from the Seine by using the river as an original means of transport and discovery. How ? Take a regular company, like the Batobus, or simply hire a boat for the weekend, for example.
The Batobus
Batobus is a shuttle-boat service that enables you to take trips along the Seine – without guided commentary – and to hop on and off at 8 strategic stops: Eiffel Tower, Champs-Elysées, Musée d’Orsay, Louvre, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Notre-Dame, Hôtel de Ville and Jardin des Plantes. The service operates from end March to beginning January: from 10am to 7pm in March, April and October; until 9pm in May, June, July, August and September; and from 10.30am to 4.30pm in November, December and January. Boats depart every 15 to 25 minutes.
Various packages:
- Half-circle ticket, for a single trip over a maximum of 4 sections (€7.50).
- 1-day ticket, for unlimited journeys and stops (€11).
- 2-day ticket, for unlimited journeys and stops over 2 consecutive days (€13).
- Escapade, valid for 1 month (€22).
- Full season (€50).
Children under 12 will only pay half price on average for all these tickets, on sale at each stop. The 1- and 2-day packages, for adults or children, are also available at all the different welcome centres of the Paris Convention and Visitors Bureau.
