Paris by night offers an incredible variety of experiences. The most popular include world-famous cabaret shows (Moulin Rouge, Paradis Latin, Crazy Horse), dinner cruises on the Seine with illuminated monuments gliding past, night bus tours to see the city’s dazzling lights, and dining with views of the Eiffel Tower. You can also explore Paris aboard a vintage 2 CV or stroll through iconic neighbourhoods like Montmartre and the Champs-Élysées after dark.
Prices vary depending on the experience. A Paris illuminations bus tour starts from just €25 per person. Dinner cruises on the Seine begin at around €82, while cabaret + dinner packages (such as dinner in Montmartre followed by the Moulin Rouge) start from €179. France Tourisme regularly offers exclusive deals and discounted online rates.
Absolutely. Paris by night has an entirely different charm to the daytime city. The illuminated monuments—the Eiffel Tower, the Champs-Élysées, Notre-Dame, the Louvre—create a visual spectacle you simply can’t see during the day. A night tour lets you take it all in over roughly 2 hours, with commentary in up to 11 languages, comfortably seated on an open-top double-decker bus. You can also combine it with a Seine cruise or a dinner for a complete evening.
Paris is the cabaret capital of the world. The three iconic venues are the Moulin Rouge, famous for its French Cancan and the spectacular Féerie revue; the Paradis Latin, featuring the new L’Oiseau Paradis show inside a theatre designed by Gustave Eiffel; and the Crazy Horse, celebrated for its artistic choreography and mesmerising light effects. Each offers a distinct atmosphere, and all three can be paired with dinner for a full evening out.
Yes! France Tourisme offers a popular package: dinner at a traditional Montmartre restaurant followed by the Moulin Rouge show with a glass of champagne. It’s the easiest way to enjoy a full night out in Montmartre without any of the planning. If you prefer to skip dinner, you can also book the show on its own with a half-bottle of champagne.
It depends on what you’re looking for. The Moulin Rouge is the most iconic and spectacular—perfect if it’s your first time in Paris. The Paradis Latin offers a more intimate experience with dinner included in a stunning architectural setting. The Crazy Horse is a more artistic and sensual show with incredible lighting design. All three make for a memorable night in Paris.
A dinner cruise on the Seine is a fine-dining experience aboard a boat that sails through Paris after dark. While you enjoy a French menu (starter, main course, dessert and wines), you’ll glide past illuminated landmarks: the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame, the Louvre and dozens of historic bridges. Cruises typically last 2 to 2.5 hours and range from bistronomic menus to prestige gastronomy.

It depends on your budget and the mood you’re after. For a romantic evening, the “Romantic Paris” dinner cruise is hard to beat. If you want to board right in front of the Eiffel Tower, the prestige dinner cruise departing from the tower is the star option. On a tighter budget, the bistronomic dinner cruise offers excellent value for money. And for the ultimate night out, combine a dinner cruise with a Paris illuminations tour or the Moulin Rouge.

Departure points vary depending on the boat. Most dinner cruises leave from the quay at the foot of the Eiffel Tower (Port de la Bourdonnais or Port de Suffren). Others depart from the Pont de l’Alma or near the Statue of Liberty on the Île aux Cygnes. The exact boarding point is shown on your booking confirmation. We recommend arriving 30 minutes before the scheduled departure.

Yes! If you fancy something different from classic French cuisine, France Tourisme offers a dinner cruise with an Italian menu aboard a boat sailing along the Seine. Enjoy pasta, Italian-inspired dishes and wines while taking in the illuminated Paris skyline. It’s a fun twist on the traditional dinner cruise experience.
The most popular way to see Paris illuminated is from the top deck of an open-top double-decker bus that drives past the main landmarks with audio commentary in 11 languages. The tour lasts around 2 hours and covers the Eiffel Tower, the Champs-Élysées, Notre-Dame, the Louvre and the Opéra. You can also experience the lights from the water on a night cruise on the Seine, or go for something more original in a vintage 2 CV car.

Yes, and it’s one of the best ways to make the most of a night in Paris! France Tourisme offers combination packages that bundle several experiences into one evening: dinner cruise + illuminations tour, illuminations tour + Moulin Rouge, or even the ultimate package: dinner cruise + illuminations + Moulin Rouge. These combos are significantly cheaper than booking each activity separately.
Dinner cruise + illuminations Illuminations + Moulin Rouge Ultimate Paris by night package
Paris has several iconic areas that truly come alive after dark. Montmartre blends bohemian charm, panoramic views and legendary cabaret venues. The Champs-Élysées is the place for upscale bars and glamorous clubs along the world’s most famous avenue. The Latin Quarter buzzes with students, lively bars and cafés. And if you’re looking for something truly unique, Versailles by night offers magical illuminated gardens and the spectacular Grandes Eaux Nocturnes shows.

Montmartre at night is simply magical. You could start with dinner at a traditional restaurant in the neighbourhood, then head to the Moulin Rouge for the show—all wrapped up in a single package. You can also wander through the Place du Tertre, climb up to the Sacré-Cœur for sweeping night views over Paris, or discover the charming little bars and cafés that give this bohemian hilltop its unique atmosphere.
Yes! France Tourisme offers an unforgettable experience: dinner at a restaurant inside the Eiffel Tower with breathtaking views over illuminated Paris. It combines the finest French gastronomy with a panorama you won’t find anywhere else. This dinner can be paired with a Seine cruise for the complete evening.
Paris is the city of love, and there’s no shortage of romantic evening options. The “Romantic Paris” dinner cruise sails along the Seine with music and illuminated landmarks. The Lounge dinner cruise offers an intimate, elegant setting. You could also opt for dinner at the Eiffel Tower with panoramic views, or a cosy evening in a Montmartre restaurant followed by the Moulin Rouge. For a more laid-back vibe, a Seine cruise with champagne and macarons is a lovely choice.

Yes! France Tourisme offers a Seine River cruise paired with dinner at a charming Parisian bistro. You get the best of both worlds: an authentic French dining experience on solid ground plus a scenic boat ride past the illuminated monuments. It’s a great alternative if you prefer eating on land rather than on a boat.
Yes, booking in advance is highly recommended, especially for cabarets (the Moulin Rouge sells out quickly), dinner cruises on weekends, and night tours during peak season (April to October). Reserving ahead on francetourisme.fr guarantees your spot and often unlocks exclusive online rates. You’ll receive an instant e-mail confirmation with all the details.
France Tourisme regularly publishes exclusive offers and promotions on its deals page. Booking early often unlocks better prices. Combination packages (dinner cruise + illuminations, dinner + cabaret) are also significantly cheaper than booking each activity on its own. Check the offers page before you book to make sure you’re not missing a deal.
Paris by night is spectacular all year round. In spring and summer, the longer, warmer evenings are ideal for open-top bus tours, Seine cruises and al fresco dining. In autumn and winter, the Christmas lights and golden glow turn the city into a fairy tale. Cabarets and dinner cruises run every season. Tip: wrap up warm if you’re choosing an open-top bus tour or a 2 CV ride in winter, and bring your camera—the photo opportunities are incredible.
It depends on the activity. For dinner cruises and cabaret shows, smart-casual is the norm—think a nice dress or trousers with a collared shirt. Trainers and shorts are generally not allowed at the Moulin Rouge or Paradis Latin. For bus tours and 2 CV rides, dress comfortably and bring layers, especially in the cooler months, as evenings can get chilly on the open top deck. A light jacket or scarf is always a good idea, even in summer.
Open 7 days a week, from 9am to 6:30pm, our agency welcomes you during your stay in Paris. Whether for information or a last minute booking, our travel experts are at your disposal to advise you and offer you the best activities and visits to enjoy during your trip!
