Bateaux-Mouche on the River Seine, Paris, France


The river Seine is probably one of the most well known rivers in France and has been made even more popular as a tourist attraction within the city of Paris. After World War II sight seeing vessels really flourished in Paris on the original longboats called bateaux-mouches that were converted into tourist boats. Today, there are now more and more tour operators that also have similar boats, yet the name bateaux-mouches has become synonymous with a tour around Paris on the Seine. The Seine is a major river of north-western France, and one of its commercial waterways.
