Tickets & Prices
What Does a Seine River Cruise Cost?
No hidden categories, no surprise fees — just what each ticket type covers.
Prices on the Seine cluster into four clear tiers. Once you know which tier fits your plan, picking a specific cruise takes minutes.
Price overview
| Type | Price |
|---|---|
| Sightseeing Cruise (1 hour) | 15–20 € |
| Lunch / Brunch Cruise | 40–90 € |
| Dinner Cruise (3-course menu) | 60–150 € |
| Private / Luxury Cruise | from 200 € |
Children's tickets are typically discounted; under-4s often travel free — check the specific operator at checkout.
How to book without overpaying
Online prices are almost always equal to or cheaper than buying at the pier, and they guarantee you a spot — useful on weekends when sightseeing boats sell out by mid-afternoon. For dinner and private cruises, advance booking is not optional: kitchens plan portions around confirmed reservations.
If your budget is flexible, an early-evening sightseeing slot just before sunset gives you both daylight and the start of the illuminated skyline for the price of the cheapest ticket on the river.
