The tour of the Canal St. Martin is a real insider tip. First we went to the Parc de la Vilette and then via several locks to the channel tunnel. The guide was great, told us a lot in English and French. You saw a lot of real Parisian life without too many tourists. The tour ended at the Bastille af...

Beneficial and very interesting cruise through a little known paris and which allows us to discover a slice of fluvial and architectural history very enriching.

I had done the cruise 2 years ago and I had good memories of it, this time it was not the same. The boat broke down in the middle of the ride and made us suffer a delay of 30mm. Worse than that the guide was not up to par. His comments were null (he talked about his life, his wife, etc. everything e...

I agree with a previously posted opinion. A group of old people arrives and passes in priority while a line had been formed for nearly a quarter of an hour. The flight attendants who tell us it's the same every day. And of course no safety distance respected on board because of the overloaded boat. ...

We booked directly for a 7pm cruise. We received a call that the 7pm was cancelled the night before and were told we could join the 9pm trip. We arrived 10 minutes before the 9pm cruise and there was no boat, and 6 others waiting for the same trip. Every call asking about the cruise we were given a ...

Cruise friendly but the incompetent guide sorry to say that because I do not like to criticize and in addition moreover it insists heavily for tips too much is too sorry .. (it was a day of strike maybe a recruited person at the last minute damage that ruined the cruise)

Enjoyable, but felt cheated, said 2 hour cruise, so you assume your going to see more than on an hour long cruise, not so! You spend I/2 hour each end of the cruise waiting for the loch gates to reach levels
So only 1 hour of cruising .

I m not even sure you can call it a cruise . A good 2 hours is spent waiting in locks, not moving, getting drenched in water that smells like urine. Splendid way to waste both your time and money. Tour is predominantly in French with an odd sentence or two in English which is difficult to hear over...

It's a scam. I booked the seats for the cruise on the Canal Saint-Martin. In the morning he got me apple to ask for the cruise change. When we arrived at the point of departure, he announced us, finally he announced to us that he was only traveling between La Republique and the Bastille, we must cho...

Despite a strike that had no impact on the cruise, the turn of the locks to the basin of the vilette was a discovery in the heart of Paris. Nice guide for his first cruise on the company, explanation in French and English. Captain smiling despite the small payloads. To do,!

We took the 2 1/2 hour canal cruise along the saint Martin's canal. Good views of the pretty tree lined streets and bridges. The guide spoke mainly French but also some commentary in English. As you go through the locks there's plenty of time to enjoy a drink from the bar which was very reasonably ...

Nice and pleasant walk on the channel of ourcq. The passage of the locks and the crossing of the various districts of the city of Paris visited change from the traditional exit in a fly boat. All this over a period of 2:30, enough to spend a beautiful afternoon.

When you are lucky and come during winter you might enjoy entire boat for yourself. We were only 8 people on a boat for 100+. When you come to Paris for second+ time you should take a boat trip. Make sure you check the departure time since there only few trips a day during winter.

A very nice ride on the Canal St Martin with the Arletty. Along the water (and the locks) we discover Paris differently. Martin at the microphone teaches us a lot about the different buildings and other parks along the route and with a lot of humor. When Martin stops talking, he will open the bar wh...

A pleasant enough way to while away 2 and a half hours, going from central Paris to La Villette through Canal Saint Martin.

The canal goes through the heart of Paris, starting with a mile-long unlit tunnel... Pretty boring, I hear you say, but no, the aeration ducts throw light onto our co-passen...

I think it's time to invest in headphones guys. Let people choose when they want to hear information or enjoy the view in peace. Take Amsterdam as an example where the sound arrives in your language, when the boat passes the attraction.

Also, it's pretty strange that you talk to us for 5 minutes ...

Non commented visit. No staff on board to take the microphone to give some info despite my request because they do not know the monuments. Hard to believe when you drive a houseboat every day on the canal.
Fortunately the pancake person is very friendly.
I do not recommend this company.

The idea is tempting, but the result is very boring: 20 minutes through a channel tunnel, then over an hour in four double locks. From the ship one admires walls and curious people who are amazed by the large and immobile ship in the small locks. In the end it gets a little better, especially when t...

See Paris differently with this bucolic stroll on the St Martin canal. The route can be quite long, especially if other boats have to use the locks. Plan a health stop before boarding because on our boat there was no toilet, as well as drinks.

The walks on the Canal Saint-Martin are great ... The price is reasonable ... On the other hand, for having done it many times, there are guides who are sorely lacking in finesse and their questionable jokes are sometimes heavy . They should also agree on the anedoctes because they are not the same ...
