Fue genial, totalmente recomendable. Comentar que el enlace de la ubicación que indican en el correo, te lleva a un embarcadero más lejano, sería genial que lo cambiasen. Sería perfecto que se indicasen los horarios disponibles de los barcos, ayudaría mucho en la organización del viaje Translate this opinion into English.

It was great, totally recommended. Comment that the location link indicated in the email takes you to a more distant pier, it would be great if they changed it. It would be perfect if the available boat schedules were indicated, it would help a lot in organizing the trip Opinion translated. Show original.

Hicimos el viaje en el último turno y fue súper lindo, no había demasiada gente. A pesar del frío dimos la primera vuelta en la parte de arriba y ya al regresar estuvimos abajo, estaba calentito y tenías vistas espectaculares también. Se los recomiendo Translate this opinion into English.

We took the ride on the last tour and it was lovely, not too crowded. Despite the cold, we did the first loop at the top and then went downstairs on the way back. It was warm and the views were spectacular. I highly recommend it. Opinion translated. Show original.

La información un poco escasa, si compras el boleto no puedes ni reservar hora, solo te dan información de orientación. Si llegas y no sabes por dónde pasar te aviso… es la fila enorme que vez… como nos dijo la chica de información “Todos ellos tienen entrada reservada y pagada”. Luego en el barco que te diré… todos corriendo para pillar sitio, personas peleando por que otras se quedaban de pie en las barandillas, un grupo de 5-6 chicas se fue por las escaleras que daban al “capitán” a ligar…

The information was a bit scarce; if you buy a ticket, you can't even reserve a time slot, they only give you basic information. If you arrive and don't know where to go, let me tell you… it's the enormous line you see… as the information girl told us, “They all have reserved and paid tickets.” Then on the boat, what can I say… everyone was running to get a seat, people were fighting over who got to stand on the railings, and a group of 5-6 girls went up the stairs to the “captain’s” area to try and pick someone up…

Paseo muy agradable donde ves los principales monumentos desde el rio. Lo unica pega que no hay nadie regulando que la gente no se ponga de pie o que los niños no corran por la superficie y hay gente muy maleducada que no piensa que no van solos en el barco Translate this opinion into English.

A very pleasant boat trip where you can see the main monuments from the river. The only downside is that there's no one regulating whether people stand up or if children run on the deck, and some people are very rude and don't seem to realize they're not alone on the boat.

La experiencia en sí nos ha gustado pero demasiada cola y el barco muy lleno aunque como nos tocó subir de los primeros y tuvimos la suerte de poder elegir el lugar donde nos sentamos. El recorrido nos pareció un poco más corto de lo habitual (fue el último viaje del barco).

We liked the experience itself, but there was too much of a line and the boat was very full, although we were among the first to board and were lucky enough to choose where we sat. The trip felt a bit shorter than usual (it was the last trip of the boat).

Muy buena, solo estaría bien que la fecha para usar el pase del barco tuviera más margen para ser utilizada, nos toco los días se Canícula y hacia muchísimo calor. La experiencia super bonita, solo estaría bien tener opción de utilizar el bono en una semana indistintamente el día Translate this opinion into English.

Very good, it would just be good if the date for using the boat pass had more flexibility; we went during the dog days of summer and it was incredibly hot. The experience was wonderful, it would just be nice to have the option to use the pass any day of the week. Opinion translated. Show original.

Fuimos al final de la tarde y la fila era muy larga, la mayoría de la gente haciendo la fila y corría rápido, pero mucha gente colándose. Aunque existe toda una logística, faltaría ampliar el control. Al subir la barco nos tocó abajo y nos salimos a la borda del barco y ahí no se escuchaban los comentarios del guía. El recorrido es hermoso y se pueden apreciar muchos de los edificios emblemáticos. Translate this opinion into English.

We went in the late afternoon and the line was very long. Most people were waiting in line and moving quickly, but many were cutting in. Although there's a whole system in place, they need to improve security. When we boarded the boat, we ended up below deck, so we went over the side and couldn't hear the guide's commentary. The tour itself is beautiful, and you can see many iconic buildings. Opinion translated. Show original.

La crociera sulla Senna è stata un’esperienza davvero meravigliosa, vissuta intensamente dall’inizio alla fine. Navigare tra i monumenti simbolo di Parigi, ammirandoli da una prospettiva unica, ha reso tutto ancora più speciale. Il momento del tramonto, con il cielo che si tingeva di colori incredibili e le luci della città che iniziavano ad accendersi, ha regalato un’atmosfera magica e indimenticabile. Un’esperienza che consiglio assolutamente a chi visita Parigi. Translate this opinion into English.

The Seine River cruise was a truly wonderful experience, thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish. Sailing past Paris's iconic monuments, admiring them from a unique perspective, made everything even more special. Sunset, with the sky ablaze with incredible colors and the city lights beginning to come on, created a magical and unforgettable atmosphere. It's an experience I absolutely recommend to anyone visiting Paris. Opinion translated. Show original.

Croisière un peu décevante cette fois-ci. Comparé à ma dernière visite, l’expérience était moins intéressante, notamment à cause du peu de commentaires pour présenter Paris. Le trajet reste joli, mais l’aspect culturel n’est plus vraiment au rendez‑vous.

This cruise was a bit disappointing. Compared to my last visit, the experience was less interesting, mainly due to the lack of commentary about Paris. The route itself was still beautiful, but the cultural aspect was largely absent.

Mi experiencia en el paseo en barco por el río Sena fue muy agradable. Las vistas de París desde el agua son hermosas y el recorrido permite apreciar monumentos emblemáticos desde una perspectiva diferente. Sin embargo, considero que sería importante controlar mejor la cantidad de personas que acceden al segundo piso de la embarcación. Durante el trayecto hubo demasiados pasajeros en esa zona, lo que dificultó disfrutar cómodamente de las vistas, tomar fotografías y desplazarse con seguridad. Translate this opinion into English.

My experience on the boat ride along the Seine River was very pleasant. The views of Paris from the water are beautiful, and the trip allows you to appreciate iconic monuments from a different perspective. However, I believe it would be important to better control the number of people accessing the second floor of the vessel. During the journey, there were too many passengers in that area, which made it difficult to comfortably enjoy the views, take photographs, and move around safely. Opinion translated. Show original.

Cuando llegamos a mediodia a París lo mejor que pudimos hacer fue acercarnos a los muelles hacia las 8 para coger un paseo por el Sena. Llevábamos las entradas pero sin hora concertada, salían cada 20 minutos. El paseo precioso. 1 hora de ida y vuelta y después esperamos allí mismo, en un café en el muelle, hasta las 10 que se iluminó la Tour Eiffel. Translate this opinion into English.

When we arrived in Paris at noon, the best thing we could do was head to the docks around 8 to take a cruise on the Seine. We had the tickets but without a scheduled time; they left every 20 minutes. The cruise was beautiful. 1 hour round trip, and then we waited right there, in a café on the dock, until 10 when the Eiffel Tower lit up. Opinion translated. Show original.

Los trabajadores fueron excelentes, vieron a mi madre con sus problemas de movilidad y automáticamente, sin pedirlo nosotros,nos llevaron a otro lado de la cola, con asientos y nos dejaron embarcar antes. Tras eso la experiencia siguió siendo maravillosa, el paseo por el sena nunca defrauda. Translate this opinion into English.

The workers were excellent, they saw my mother with her mobility issues and automatically, without us asking, they took us to another part of the line, with seats, and let us board early.

Tenia una reserva en barco por el Sena hoy, pero tuve problemas con el vuelo Podrian pasarme la reserva para el jueves 14 de mayo por favor? Ayer escribí por WhatsApp pero no tuve respuesta. Sé que estoy pidiendo una excepción, pero como tengo varias reservas, ojalá puedan hacerlo. Esperaré una respuesta. Saludos Ana

I had a boat trip reservation on the Seine today, but I had problems with my flight. Could you please reschedule my reservation for Thursday, May 14th? I messaged you on WhatsApp yesterday but haven't received a response. I know I'm asking for an exception, but since I have several reservations, I hope you can accommodate me. I'll wait for your reply. Best regards, Ana

La excursión cumplió con nuestras expectativas. El recorrido es hermoso. Si querés subir a la planta de arriba que está descubierta, procura llegar temprano para conseguir lugar porque hay mucha gente. Nosotros elegimos el horario del atardecer, fuimos 19.30 y llegamos bien para salida del barco a las 20 hs. Tene en cuenta que hay procesos de seguridad antes de ingresar. Lo recomiendo Translate this opinion into English.

The excursion met our expectations. The tour is beautiful. If you want to go up to the open-air upper level, try to arrive early to get a spot because it gets very crowded. We chose the sunset tour, arrived at 7:30 pm, and made it in time for the 8:00 pm boat departure. Keep in mind that there are security checks before entering. I highly recommend it.

Hizo buen tiempo y fue un paseo agradable. Así que básicamente bien. No está señalizado que las entradas de Civitatis son con la compañía proveedora así que te puedes confundir. Mucho ojo. Y a mi no se me abrió la audio guía del QR así que solo disfrute del paseo y los comentarios exporadicos que hacían en español por megafonía.

The weather was nice and it was a pleasant walk. So basically, it was good. It's not clearly marked that Civitatis tickets are with the tour operator, so you can easily get confused. Be careful. And my QR code audio guide didn't work, so I just enjoyed the walk and the occasional commentary in Spanish over the PA system.

Como indicamos claramente en la descripción de la actividad, Civitatis nunca opera directamente las actividades que distribuye. Las personas que te atendieron eran de nuestra empresa colaboradora en destino, cuyos datos te facilitamos por email. Esta información se da para que sea tenida en cuenta, sentimos si no pudo ser el caso. Translate this opinion into English.

El tour es muy bonito!! Recomendado ir al atardecer, para verlo de día a la ida y de noche iluminado a la vuelta. Importante tener en cuenta que se forman largas colas, y el ticket es sin hora. Nosotras queríamos coger el barco de las 20:20 sin saber que iba a haber esa cola y tuvimos que coger el siguiente. Translate this opinion into English.

The tour is beautiful! I recommend going at sunset, so you can see it illuminated during the day on the way there and at night on the way back. It's important to note that there are long queues, and the ticket doesn't specify a time. We wanted to take the 8:20 pm boat without knowing there would be such a long queue, and we had to take the next one. Opinion translated. Show original.

la actividad merece la pena, sobre todo en los barcos nocturnos. El único problema es que hay demasiada gente en cada barco y la zona de arriba, que es la que merece la pena, se llena en exceso de gente y no hay forma de saber en qué sitio te vas a poner cuando empiezas la cola Translate this opinion into English.

the activity is worth it, especially on the night boats. The only problem is that there are too many people on each boat and the upper area, which is the one worth it, gets excessively crowded and there’s no way to know where you’re going to sit when you start queuing.

Todo genial. Aunque había gente esperando, la cola avanzó muy rápido. Experiencia muy recomendable, puedes elegir entre ir fuera o dentro. El mismo bono que te envían es con el que pasas, y no tienes que elegir hora, así puedes ir cuando mejor te venga. Translate this opinion into English.

Everything was great. Although there were people waiting, the queue moved very quickly. Highly recommended experience; you can choose between going outside or inside. The same voucher they send you is the one you use for entry, and you don't have to choose a time, so you can go whenever it suits you best. Opinion translated. Show original.

Teniendo intención de realizar el paseo en barco por el Sena en horario diurno, por recomendación exclusiva de los diferentes guías que conocimos en los free tour realizados lo realizamos en horario nocturno! Al ser sábado existía una cola interminable que nos desesperó! Y dentro del barco fue un poco agobiante, demasiadas personas! El recorrido y duración correctos, pero bajo mi criterio me inclino a realizarlo de día, a medio día antes de comer!!

Intending to take the Seine River cruise during the day, we opted for a nighttime tour based solely on the recommendations of the various guides we met on the free tours! Since it was a Saturday, the queue was incredibly long and frustrating! And the boat itself was a bit overwhelming, with far too many people! The route and duration were fine, but in my opinion, I prefer to do it during the day, around midday before lunch!

We loved this experience. This company departs every half hour, so you don't wait long in line. Inside the boat, they provide short explanations of what you see in several languages.
