What is included and what is not

Included on the reviewed listing

  • Louvre guided tour
  • Seine sightseeing cruise by Bateaux Parisiens

Not included

  • Dinner or drinks on board
  • Transfer between the museum and the pier
  • Other combinations with different contents

Two parts, two places, two times

A combo is a bundle of separate activities. The museum part has its own meeting point and start time. The cruise has its own pier and departure times. Nothing links them physically, so you are responsible for getting from one to the other.

This is a sightseeing cruise, not a dinner cruise. If you have seen other Louvre and cruise combinations with meals or different contents, they are different products with different prices.

Plan the order and the gap

  1. Book the museum slot first. Timed museum tours are usually the tighter constraint.
  2. Check how the cruise works. See whether the cruise uses a fixed time or an open ticket, and where it departs.
  3. Leave a comfortable gap. Allow time to leave the museum, walk or ride to the pier, and queue for boarding.
  4. Check day rules. Find out whether the two parts must be used on the same day or can be split.
Editorial tip

Book the museum slot first when combining a visit with a cruise, then leave a comfortable gap between the two activities. A tour that runs late should not cost you the boat.

Is the combo good value?

Bundles can save money, but not every combination is cheaper than separate bookings. The price unit, any advertised discount and the exact cruise included all affect the comparison. Enter your date and group on Tiqets, then compare with a separate guided tour plus a cruise ticket. Choose the combo when it is cheaper or simply more convenient for you.

Who it suits

  • First time visitors to Paris who want the museum and a view of the city from the river.
  • Travellers who prefer one booking and one confirmation for both activities.
  • Families who want a relaxing activity after a long museum visit.

What to check before you pay

  • Cruise departure point and time
  • Whether the parts can be used on different days
  • Price unit and any discount shown

Alternatives to consider

Frequently asked questions

Is this a dinner cruise?

No. This combination pairs a Louvre guided tour with a sightseeing cruise by Bateaux Parisiens. Meals are not part of it.

Can I do the museum and the cruise on different days?

Check the conditions of this specific combination on Tiqets. Rules for using the two parts on different days can vary.

Is the combo cheaper than booking separately?

Not always. Compare the total for your date and group with the two activities booked separately. Discounts shown on a listing can change.

Where does the cruise leave from?

The departure point is stated on the cruise part of the listing and on your voucher. It is not at the museum, so allow time to walk or travel between them.
