What better spot than the Seine for the evening of July 13, 2026 in Paris? Each year, Bastille Day wraps up (or kicks off, for this edition) with a spectacular fireworks display fired from the Eiffel Tower, Paris’s iconic monument. And every year, it’s a challenge to secure a good spot to watch the pyrotechnics.
That's why the Bateaux-Mouches company is offering a special cruise this coming July 13. The famous Parisian boats invite you on this National Day for a 1h45 musical dinner-cruise, taking in the Parisian monuments along the Seine, with a return near the Tour Eiffel to be in prime position for the feu d'artifice. And as a bonus, a unique menu for the occasion and a singer, accompanied by his orchestra, for an exclusive riverside evening, far from the bustle of the crowds gathering on the quays or the Champ-de-Mars!
Rendezvous at the Pont de l'Alma, at 8.30pm, but please note that due to limited seating, we strongly advise you to book your cruise in advance. For this evening, smart, dressy attire is required. The refined meal features French gastronomy.
