Wednesday Jazz Cruise
Every wednesdy evening from 8:30pm to midnight, you can enjoy jazz diner cruise-concert on the Seine.
Classic Jazz, Blues, New Orleans, Salsa, Manouche, Rock’n roll, R’n B. The night I went it was Country Western and the group and singer were excellent playing some of my favorite bluegrass music.
As you glide through Paris you'll be served a sumptuous meal by an efficient and very welcoming staff. Dinner is served on teak tables and if you are a group of 6 - 10 the tables are round with chandeliers and candles.
If you request we can arrange for the boat to call a taxi for you when you arrive back at the dock or you can ask when you are on board.
Prior to boarding we will pick you up from your hotel or apartment and take you on a 1 hr tour of hidden Paris.
