Follow the historic route of the Olympic Flame and athletes from around the world, and immerse yourself once again in the excitement of the 2024 Games, an event that has left an indelible mark on the capital.

Your journey begins near the iconic Hôtel du Nord, just steps away from Place de la République. During two hours of guided cruise, let yourself be enchanted by the timeless charm of the Canal Saint-Martin, its picturesque locks, its romantic footbridges, and the mysterious vault of the Bastille. This neighborhood, once a symbol of popular Paris and now one of the trendiest, transports you into a magical atmosphere, still imbued with the energy of the Games.

Upon reaching the Seine, Paris reveals itself in all its splendor. From the boat, admire iconic monuments such as Notre-Dame, the Louvre, the Musée d'Orsay, the National Assembly and, of course, the Eiffel Tower, which was at the heart of the Olympic festivities. This cruise plunges you into the history and grandeur of this global event that made the capital vibrate.

Our boats, which proudly took part in the opening parade, now offer you a unique opportunity to relive the excitement of the summer of 2024. More than just a cruise, this journey is a true celebration of the Olympic legacy, where the sporting spirit meets Parisian heritage.

Passionate guides share anecdotes and secrets with you, making every moment captivating. Board at the Valmy quay and disembark on Île de la Cité, at the foot of the Pont Neuf, the oldest bridge in Paris, to extend your exploration of the City of Light.

Book your spot on this exceptional cruise now! Experience a unique journey blending history, sport, and culture, and let yourself be carried away by the magic of a Paris that continues to pulsate with the rhythm of its Olympic past.
