10Best Says

This classic sightseeing cruise offers a relaxed and enchanting way to take in the many beautiful and historical monuments that can be seen from the Seine River. It's a great way to sightsee for sore feet. And its boarding location, just near the Eiffel Tower and also on the Left Bank, couldn't be more convenient. This is also one of the only river cruise boat companies that offers special tours and guided commentary - Cruise Mysteries of Paris - for children. There are two special programs on offer for kids, one for the 3-6 year olds and another for the 6-11 year olds. To make the most of your day, you can show your ticket from this excursion at the entrance of the Paris Aquarium (Aquarium de Paris - Cinéaqua) which then gets you and your children a 20% discount on entry fee (under 3 get in for free).

Tours and Excursions: "A good bargain is to combine one of these trips with their bus partner, Foxity. The bus tours allow you to hop on and hop off. And the Vedettes give you the option of cruising by day or by night."

Best for Tours and Excursions Because: While there are several exceptional river boat cruise companies to choose from, this one also offers guided commentary designed just for kids.
