Bateaux Mouches Seine Cruise
Glide past Notre-Dame, the Louvre, and the Eiffel Tower on a one-hour river cruise. The open-air upper deck is best at golden hour when the monuments glow.

Latin Quarter Backstreets
20 min walk from the dock. Wind through the medieval lanes around Rue de la Huchette and Rue Saint-Séverin. Ancient churches, crêpe stalls, and bookshops at every turn.

Le Petit Cler
15 min walk. Charming neighbourhood bistro on pedestrianised Rue Cler. Honest French cooking — duck confit, crème brûlée, and a short but excellent wine list.

La Compagnie des Vins Surnaturels
10 min walk. Natural wine bar with over 600 references and knowledgeable sommeliers. Exposed stone walls, low lighting, and excellent cheese boards.
Comments
The Seine cruise at sunset was genuinely magical — sit on the left side for the best Eiffel Tower views. Don't skip this one.
Went at noon and it was still beautiful, but sunset is definitely the move.
