Paris - looking for a good river trip
I am hoping someone out there can recommend a good river trip. Is one company better than the others? I see that Batobus seems to be a shuttle service, which could aid in my sightseeing. Only there for 72 hours.
Any help or advice is appreciated!!

If you are staying near the Pont Neuf, there is a river trip from right under it, by the pretty little park at the tip of the Isle de Cite. I think they are called the Bateaux Vedettes, or something like that. Their boats are smaller than the Bateaux Mouches, and they leave about every hour. I did that in the daytime, but still want to do a night cruise.

Sue4 mentions the boats at the Pont Neuf. The name is close: they are the Vedettes Pont Neuf. We prefer these boasts because of location and their somewhat smaller size. Have done day and evening trips with them. Very nice indeed.
