"Buses" on the Seine?

Hi,

I thought I remembered seeing that there were transportation (not touring) buses on the Seine that accepted the Carte Orange?

Anyone know?

The Batobus is a great way to see Paris. You can hop-on-hop-off all day long, for the same price. It stops at the eight major sites along the river. Be sure to check it's end-time, so you can ride at least once after dark. It's a beautiful view of Paris (and inexpensive).

Also be sure to check the time schedules. It only runs until about 9:30PM and that is only in summer.

Thank you. I was down by the Pont Alexandre (sp?) yesterday and saw the Batobus and looked it up on line, but I thought I remembered something about some kind of public transportation buses... I was wrong!

Might do the Batobus tomorrow. Thanks for the help.

Personally, I don't think the convenience/price ratio is good.
