FLEET BATEAUX MOUCHES

The 9 cruise boats

Jean Bruel had already imagined 9 cruise boats, encased in glass and bathed in light. They represent up the company’s current fleet. He himself designed and built really modern and avant-garde boats.

All of the boats have modern equipment and two decks:

One of them is enclosed, with heating and air conditioning, and has a glass roof and sides. It offers an incomparable view of all of Paris’ beautiful sights, while being sheltered from bad weather.

The other one has an open deck, which enables passengers to take advantage of all of the magic of the City of Light and provides a 360° view.

All of our boats are regularly renovated and decorated so that they remain at the cutting edge of technology and in keeping with current tastes.
Cruise trips: departures every day, all day long and in the evening.
