Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower has been built by French engineer Gustave Eiffel, for the 1889 Universal Exhibition in Paris. This magnificent technical feat was achieved in a mere two years, two months and five days. It stands 324 metres tall, and the metal structure weighs 7,300 tonnes. Parisians were scandalised by its metallic look and height. It was built to last 20 years. A radio antenna was added to the top in 1903, saving the tower from demolition. It has now become the monument symbolic of Paris.
Cathedrale de la Sainte-Trinite
The new Russian Orthodox church is known as the Holy Trinity Cathedral. The centre houses a bilingual Franco-Russian school, a parish house, and a cultural centre.

We booked the river cruise in the off season fully prepared for some rain and for it to be cold. However, we booked the cruise with wine option and when we arrived, we did not get any instructions from staff/ helpers about what to do in terms of getting a drink. Turned out you had to go to the bar yourself and ask for your paid wine. There was no safety talk. The boat is meant to get you to near the Effiel Tower so you can see it when it shimmers. This did not happen for us. We were ages away when the light show began. Honestly not what we expected.

What a wonderful experience. Having French music playing instead of a non stop talking guide was perfect for our group. We went for the 5:45pm cruise and it was stunning. We caught the end of the sunset and the lights of the city came alive on the water. This was an absolute highlight of my stay in Paris. Definitely upgrade to include champagne you won’t regret it!

Very nice tour. If you go in the middle of January, dress warm. Lovely to see everything lit up and sparkling.

Get there early for a good seat to be able to record the views by the window or upstairs. Bartender is pleasant.

Get there early to get the front of the line to get a seat downstairs. Then you can secure your seat and go upstairs for the views when you need to.

Experience was cancelled at the last minute when we were standing on the dock. I'm still waiting to hear from Viator about a refund. This outcome is very unusual for Viator. Hope this story ends well.

The cruise was exactly as billed HOWEVER they blast the French music so listening to the downloadable audio guide is near impossible unless your entire group brought headphones. And the audio guide was good with what we could hear of it.

This was fine. Prob could have found cheaper directly through the Vendettes website. I recommend getting there 30min earlier or you will miss the tour.
