How much does a private cruise on the Seine cost? What the price actually includes

Seeing Paris from the water for a couple of hours has nothing in common, budget-wise, with a full evening on board. A private cruise can be very short and intimate, or become a genuine event with a meal and entertainment.

At Sein'ario, private yachts are offered for 2 to 30 guests, with other boats available depending on the group and the project. Each request is checked for availability on the chosen date.

Duration is a central factor

An hour, two hours or a full evening don't tie up the boat in the same way. The cruising time should therefore be clearly stated in the quote, along with any set-up time or time spent on board beforehand.

The number of guests changes the logic of the price

For a small private cruise, the boat is often charged as an overall package rather than as a sum of individual tickets. Dividing the price by the number of people then gives an average cost per guest, but this is only a rough indicator.

A meal or a simple cruise: two different budgets

A boat with a cruise-only package doesn't involve the same services as a cruise with a cocktail reception, dinner, drinks or music. The right approach is to compare offers that cover the same things.

What figures should you use as a guide?

Sein'ario gives general indicative figures ranging from a few hundred euros for some short private bookings to several thousand euros for more comprehensive events. For a specific private cruise, only a quote tied to the date, the boat and the package will give you the actual price.
