Birthday cruise reviews

Beverly Bohnert, guest photo
We ended our magical time in Paris with the most unforgettable experience, a private Seine River cruise with Dolce Vita Yacht Paris, gifted by my son for his sister’s 40th birthday. From the moment we arrived at the dock just across from the Musée d’Orsay, everything was seamless and welcoming. The captain and his assistant were truly exceptional, knowledgeable, kind, and attentive in every way. They made us feel completely at ease and ensured every detail was perfect. As we cruised along the Seine, we were treated to breathtaking views of some of Paris’s most iconic landmarks. We passed the Louvre, Notre-Dame, and the charming Île Saint-Louis, before continuing on to the Eiffel Tower sparkling in all its glory, and even the Statue of Liberty. Each sight felt more magical than the last, especially with the gentle glow of evening settling over the city. It was a bit chilly, but they thoughtfully provided cozy blankets, which made the experience even more comfortable. My son had arranged a beautiful cheese platter with champagne, and it was absolutely delicious, such a special touch that made the celebration feel even more intimate and memorable. This experience was truly the highlight of our trip. If you’re looking for a unique, luxurious, and deeply personal way to see Paris, I cannot recommend Dolce Vita Yacht Paris enough. It was an evening we will cherish forever.

Amazing boat trip for my sister’s hen weekend! We had a 2 hour cruise on the Seine on their beautiful Felicitas boat, it felt like a true Parisian experience! With champagne on ice and wonderful sunshine and blue skies, I would really recommend doing this for anyone who wants a trip filled with unforgettable experiences which feel truly Parisian! The staff on the boat also were so welcoming and friendly. I would love to come back and have a trip on this boat again!

A magical experience, even for Parisians like us! Advice on organising it (a family surprise birthday) ahead of the cruise, a beautiful and comfortable boat (Dolce Vita), a captain and his first mate who took great care of us, perfect timing (right at sunset). I have only one regret: that it was too short. I would happily have stayed longer, I enjoyed it so much.
