I was with our family of 8 and we thoroughly enjoyed the view from the top of the Arch ... beautiful. It was very cold that day but that didn't stop us. In case of mobility issues there is an elevator. The night cruise on the Seine was just as beautiful. I had not ideas there were so many bridges across the Seine. I highly recommend.

I loved the whole experience, I went as soon as it opened on the Saturday and didn't have to queue... went straight in and enjoyed the visit very much! The views are fantastic and you can take great photos! Just bear in mind that you have lots of steps to go up (and down!)

This is a no-frills experience with limited personal engagement or commentary. The audio capabilities on the boat were poor. Most of the handsets did not work. Expect to use your own phone to search and listen to points of interest. In these cases, you’re always wondering if you’re looking at the site that they are referencing in the audio.
You are completely on your own at the Arc de Triomphe. This part of the experience is basically an access ticket to climb to the top of the monument which is difficult if you’re not used to climbing spiral staircases that go up over multiple dozen stories. The handicap lift was not working this day which left our limited travel companion down at the bottom.

Both provide entry when it suits you on the day you choose which is great. The arc de triomphe was amazing and entry was seamless. We chose to do the Seine river cruise after dinner and it was packed. The boat was also packed so I would recommend a smaller one if you can get it!

The Seine Cruise requires different tickets than the Arc, even though we bought the experience as block. That was our only hiccup. Otherwise, very nice.

Great value for the money! Arc de Triomphe gave great views of the city. River Seine tour was informative

I learn so much about Paris, France history. a great self guided tour and great gift shop. The river cruise portion was fun. Don’t forget to download the app

Going up the Arc de Triomphe and seeing the city from above and the cruise in the Seine River was beautiful 🤩

Great experience. Highly recommend. The stairs were a challenge for some but worth it as the view is awesome.

Everything went smoothly and as planned. The arc itself was interesting and the information you read on the way in and up the various levels was informative. The guide was fine. The seine River Cruise was pretty bare bones, but it was nice to sit and put our feet up so it was actually a good hour of relaxation after walking all day.

Arc de Triomphe was great. Stairs are quite a climb. View is Amazing. The river cruise however was not so great. You really can’t see any sites from inside the boat. They wouldn’t let us sit up top because the river is too high and it was not safe to go under the bridges. From the inside cabin you really are just looking at the walks along the river. Don’t recommend unless you can sit up top.

Both experiences were good. Be prepared for a long climb up the Arc de Triomphe. We went on a very cold night so wrap up warm.
James_W, Nov 2023
Arc de Triomphe was amazing. Greatly exceeded our expectations. Be prepared to climb nearly 300 steps to the top but it was well worth the view. Get your tickets ahead of time or you’ll be waiting in a VERY long line.
Our tickets off the app didn’t work so we had to call and get them sent directly to our phone but they handled it great and very promptly.

Arc de Triomphe , so beautiful place to visit. And cruise was great got to see different parts of Paris :)

Disappointed that the Seine River Cruise audio was malfunctioning. No cues as to what site we were viewing in order to select desired Audio very brief.
Matthew_R, Oct 2023
Went to Arc the next day as it was closed. We navigated it ourselves and enjoyed the view. The river cruise was also self guided with a headset, kinda generic. Do it on your own versus paying for guides.

Although the Arc de Triomphe visit was very good with perfect weather and low crowds, the Seine River Cruise did not happen. Although we bought the combo ticket, when we arrived at the boat dock at 8:30 p.m., the company was closed for the night. They were supposed to be open till 10 p.m. An adjoining company man said his boats were round trip, but we did not purchase from him, preferring to be on the one way which we had purchased through Viator. We do not recommend using this company for your tickets to tourist events/venues. The guide at the Eiffel Tower showed up late, others on the 6 pm. tour showed up late. There were numerous delays in getting the tickets because the guide kept telling jokes and decided to insert a bathroom break. He then told us the elevators were broken to Level 1 and Level 2 and there was a 2 hour line or we could walk up. Being physically fit, we chose to walk up. The guide continued to joke around and several people left. We urged him to hurry up as we were missing sunset, which was the whole point of going at 6 p.m.

It's value for money, especially the cruise is great. The view from the rooftop of Arc De Triomphe is spectacular.
Susie_F, Sep 2023
Absolute horrible service! Both the Arc and Seine tickets I was given - when I took it to Arc & Seine I was told wasn’t the actual ticket, that I had to call back to Viator and get sent the actual ticket, but I printed out AND downloaded everything I was sent. Both scans I was told were not going through so I had to buy another ticket through them at that location.

My husband is a cyclist and watches the Tour de France every year. It was his dream to visit the Arc and this activity made it very easy! The staff were great to help me with taking the elevator while he took the stairs. The views were amazing and the historical information was very interesting. The tomb of the unknown soldier was a poignant reminder of what so many have given in service to their countries. We enjoyed the boat ride on the Seine - it gave us a chance to see things we wouldn't have otherwise had time to enjoy.
ROBERTA_W, Aug 2023
Great walk up the Arc de Triomphe with views for miles. Great way to orient yourself for major attractions.
Fatima_L, Aug 2023
Worth visiting to capture Paris’s 12 biukevards star. Shame I had no time to cruise la Saine but the price for both was defo worth it.
Carol_S, Aug 2023
Views were amazing! My mom took elevator almost all the way. She then only had to walk 40 steps and it had a handrail

It took some time to get our vouchers for the Arc De Triomphe but with help from your service we received them.
The Seine River cruise was ok but I guess we were really spoiled by the dinner cruise the night before.
Long line for the river cruise
Aimee_O, Aug 2023
This location was super crowded! It was still really beautiful but you had to fight to get to be able to see.
amy_k, Aug 2023
Enjoyed this pairing of the arc de triumph as well as the Seine river boat cruise. Do not try and use the Viator tickets that are in the app. Make sure you get an email with actual tickets in them. We went to the Arc and our Viator tickets did not work. I did email and got back to me in a decent time and sent our tickets to the email address I provided. They did work then
Ahmed_M, Jul 2023
you have to go to the top of the building, make sure your ticket includes the top.
be ready to climb a good number of steps.
Gayle_B, Jul 2023
The view from the platform on the Arc de Triomphe and the beauty we saw along the Seine! The history of Paris is amazing.
Tanya_B, Jul 2023
The Arc de Triomphe was amazing on the ground. Climbing the stairs was a feat but we finally got there and it was more than worth the effort.
Cruise on the river Seine was relaxing and great to see the sights from the water.
Sherry_B, Jun 2023
We really enjoyed the history and the views. We went after dark and seeing the Eiffel Tower light up at 22:00 was also amazing.
