Not sure which ticket to choose?
For the best value in May 2026, choose partner tickets like Tiqets for flexible 'open' entry that bypasses the ticket office. Official sites are better for specific timed discounts or premium dinner packages.
You need to cancel if your plans change
Tiqets typically offers a 24-hour cancellation window, whereas official 'open' tickets are often non-refundable.

4 things to know before your visit
- Entrance: There are three main hubs: Port de la Bourdonnais (Bateaux Parisiens, near Eiffel Tower), Port de la Conférence (Bateaux Mouches, near Pont de l'Alma), and Square du Vert-Galant (Vedettes du Pont Neuf). Look for the 'E-Ticket' or 'Pre-paid' lane to skip the ticket window, but arrive 20-30 minutes early to join the boarding queue for the best top-deck seating.
- Price: Official 2026 sightseeing rates range from €15 (timed) to €18 (open-dated) when booking direct. Partner prices like the €16 Tiqets row often match official timed rates; reseller 'open' tickets may reach €21. Always compare the final checkout total and inclusions before booking.
- Discounts: Children under 4 cruise for free but require a 'zero-euro' ticket. Reduced rates apply for children (typically ages 4-11 or 4-12). Note that major operators like Bateaux Parisiens require adult tickets for children aged 12 and over, while Vedettes du Pont Neuf uses age 13.
- Timing: Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does 'Skip-the-line' mean I board the boat immediately?
No. It only allows you to skip the ticket purchase window. You must still join the mandatory security and boarding queues with all other passengers.
Are mobile tickets accepted at the pier?
Yes, all major operators (Bateaux Mouches, Bateaux Parisiens, Vedettes) accept QR codes on smartphones; printing is not required.
What happens if it rains?
Cruises operate in rain as boats have glass-enclosed lower decks. Tickets are generally not refundable due to weather unless the river level is too high for navigation.
Can I use my ticket on any boat at any time?
Most standard tickets are 'open-dated' and valid for any departure within a year, but 'timed' tickets are strictly for the selected slot and are often cheaper.
Is there a specific seat assignment?
No, seating is first-come, first-served on both the open-air top deck and the enclosed lower deck.
