Paris by Boat: visit by Batobus
The Batobus takes you to the heart of Paris, to reach the various quarters of the capital. With 8 stops on the route, Batobus shows you a different view of Paris and is an original way of getting about in Paris.
The fleet consists of 5 trimarans. It is a unique means of transport on the Seine— ideal for Parisians who wish to avoid the metro and for tourists who enjoy the combination of a trip and a visit to the different quarters of Paris.
We have eight stops along a circular route that covers both the left and right banks of the Seine:
Left Bank: Tour Eiffel, Musée d'Orsay, Saint-Germain-des-Pres, Nôtre-Dame, Jardin des Plantes.
Right Bank: Hôtel de Ville, Louvre, Champs-Elysées.
From these stops, you can easily reach the leading sights in central Paris. You can hop on and off the boats as often as you like.
