Best of Both Worlds Cruise, from the Saint-Martin Canal to the Seine

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« The underground part of the Canal St Martin is a surprise. The tour gives one the opportunity to have a boat trip on both the canal and the River Seine, past the Eiffel Tower to the turning point of the tour at the Statue of Liberty. » - Theuns

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« A highly recommended activity - it was perfect. A cruise that takes you along the Canal Saint-Martin, that side of Paris we don't necessarily know, with a friendly guide who shared his knowledge generously. Then seamlessly continuing onto the Seine, a very pleasant and information-rich journey rediscovering the monuments of Paris and some previously unknown neighbourhoods. A truly worthwhile outing. Kudos also for the organisation. » - Brigitte

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« Loved this river cruise going through the few canal locks at the start was really cool. Then going underground through the tunnel was amazing . Couldn't believe how quiet it was and how clear the water was. Then a really enjoyable cruise along the Sienne. The female guide talks non stop. And I mean - non stop. Whilst she was informative and entertaining - it's really annoying but the end. You just wanted a few minutes of silence to enjoy the scenery. If we had a dollar for every time she said the phrase -“Just so you know” - we’d be millionaires. She did make us laugh despite all this Great cruise to see Paris » - johnbo

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« I took my wife on the cruise as part of our anniversary trip to Paris and we both throughly enjoyed it. The journey down through several locks on the canal was a real treat and going through the tunnel under the Place de la Bastille was something special too, not what you get on any other river cruise. The history told and the connection from looking up from the River Seine on numerous Parisian landmarks really embeds you into your surroundings. A fascinating trip and some great photo opportunities too, especially the Eiffel Tower and Statue of Liberty. We thoroughly recommend this cruise. » - d32ben

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« Experience was better than expected. Guide seamlessly moved between French and English sharing the history of the Canal, how it was built and how it affected Parisian life in the past and in recent times. We then moved into the Seine and received more info on this strategic river running through the heart of Paris. Weather was on again/off again rain so we stayed up top when it was clear and inside when the rain started (There was plenty of room inside). Onboard snack bar had plenty of choices to fill your snacking needs. It was a very relaxing and informative tour. If you love water and enjoy history even a little bit, this is a great tour experience. » - MarkD

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« Most people miss this beautiful canal when in Paris. I loved seeing the lock system in the canal and then entering the Seine River portion. Snacks and drinks made this a comfortable ride and the narration was fun and informative. » - Rita_M

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« There are any number of companies offering a cruise on the Seine. What makes this one stand out is the inclusion of the Canal St Martin and the voyage through the locks and underground tunnel system before joining the Seine. The tour commentary was humorous and I felt the speed of vessel was slower, less hurried compared to the other we passed » - Chris

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« This was my first river boat ride so I can’t compare it to a traditional river cruise but I’d think it stands out as an exceptional experience. Riding thru the locks; seeing the local neighborhood (kids jumping into the canal off the bridge by our launch - very hot day); floating past local marina with lots of interesting house boats, etc; and a slightly smaller crowd than some of the big operators. We saw everything the big operators saw and had French/English explanation of sights we were seeing. Drop off point was Pont Neuf just so it’s clear you don't go back to the start. We had a great time. » - Alison_M

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« The guide was excellent - the commentary was exceptional, what erudition. Bravo J. » - Diane_C

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« This is a lovely, relaxed boating trip down canals, an amazing tunnel, and a set of locks prior to entering the Seine. We were well informed with the commentary. It was a small group and a small boat - extremely pleasant! » - beverly

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« It’s a wonderful tour, especially for us starting at the canal and going through the locks. A very unique experience. Cruise on the river was very nice as well. Seating is OK on either the top or the bottom. If it gets chilly or hot, it’s still nice inside. » - Daryl_H

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« I'm glad I found this trip as it was something different to the trips which just take you on the Seine. We enjoyed a sunny couple of hours firstly on the canal, going through locks and tunnels which was very interesting and picturesque. Then the tour on the Seine which took you to see many of the sights on the way. The trip was really enjoyable and the commentary was great. Thank you. » - Julie R

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« I highly recommend this cruise for a different way to discover Paris. A very interesting guided tour. » - celynst

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐« My twin 13 year old girls and I enjoyed the cruise. Even though it poured with rain, we enjoyed all the views from inside. Both guides were very good and funny. They made the commentary very entertaining. Seeing how the locks work was a very cool feature of this cruise. We took the cruise on our last day - it was a great way to end our holiday in Paris. I highly recommend it. » - Christina
