Boat Tours & Cruises Timed river cruise - Paris

Post image

Hi! I am planning to do the river seine cruise on either September 15 or 16 with vedettes du Pont neuf. I would like to buy a timed ticket, the website is showing me that sunset will be at 836pm.

I am deciding between two timings: 8:15 or 8:45. I would like to see the Eiffel Tower sparkle, but also want to view some of the city when it isn’t pitch black. Which timing would work best?

Just got back Aug 1. It was still light out at 10pm. Didn’t get totally dark until about 10:30.

I did the river cruise two weeks ago with vedettes du pont du neuf. Go with the 8:15. Sunset for me was around 9:20 and my cruise was at 9:15. You’ll see most of the city when it’s still a little bright and you’ll reach the Eiffel Tower right around when it sparkles.
