Exploring Paris with Batobus Hop-on Hop-off Cruise, Paris, France

While researching transportation in Paris, we discovered the hop-on-hop-off water taxi service called Batobus. Opting for this instead of the usual Seine River cruises, which are typically packed with hundreds of travelers, turned out to be a fantastic decision. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment.

We divided our sightseeing over four days, using Batobus, Big Bus tours, and public transportation (buses and metros). We considered factors such as walking distance, travel time between spots, stairs, and operating hours.

Batobus offers 1 or 2-day passes. We purchased a 1-day pass for a total of €59 (€23 per adult and €13 per child) in May 2024. Although you can buy passes in advance, we booked ours online the same morning. Tickets can also be purchased offline, though they cost slightly more than the online prices.
