Great way to spend an evening

Overall was very good. Upscale food prepared fresh on board. Food was delicious. Aperitif was just a single bite of food and drinks, other than still water, are not included, add’l fee for coffee, tea or wine. The tourist board suggested we be there at 7:30-7:40 but boarding does not begin until 8 pm and the boat departs at 8:30 pm. It was a bit rainy so we were boarded early. There were just a few tourist info comments throughout the ride leaving you to really enjoy the food and view by city lights. There is an outside deck to enjoy if the weather permits as well. If you want to sit by a window, book early and request a location (for a fee) . We did not and had a center aisle seat. However, we were up top which provided a great view. Our service was good but our waiter was very, very busy - so not a lot of connection with your wait staff, which is something I often enjoy when traveling to other countries.

The weather was not good, unfortunately it was impossible to go outside, but we still enjoyed the cruise. The wine was great and little snack too. The guide spoke French and English very well.

Relaxed Lunch Cruise

We had a spare few hours and thought it would be nice to view the riverside and have lunch at the same time. This was an excellent choice, good food and superb service complimented the river views. We would certainly recommend this trip to visitors to Bordeaux.

I liked the price, on-time departure, staff and seating. We had no difficulties and I would recommend the cruise to other travelers. Tip: dress for some wind on the boat!

Nice meal and good service quality. If it was sunny, the trip would be much better.
