The experience

Travel Paris's lesser-known waterways towards the historic Musée d'Orsay

Complete your Paris experience with a cruise on the quaint Canal Saint-Martin, an extension of the River Seine, and a quieter alternative to the city's larger and better-known waterways. Drift idly from Parc de la Villette to the regal Musée d'Orsay, home to countless artworks and statues.

You can breeze through romantic winding canals, under scenic swing bridges, and watch locals enjoying wine on the embankment while the city slips into a slower pace from this tree-lined vantage point.

What’s included

  • 2.5-hour cruise on the Canal Saint-Martin, from Parc de la Villette to Musée d'Orsay (one-way cruise)
  • Go through locks, under bridges, sail past an underground vault, and see major Parisian landmarks
