Dinner Cruise?

Ok- so my hubby is wanting to consider a dinner cruise. We took Bateau Mouches for a dinner cruise in 2019 and the food was fair. Any other ones that have at least a bit better food but nothing that will break the bank (particularly because I’m not really interested in it. One of those things that you only need to do once and overprice in my opinion).
I have looked all over the Internet but ones that I’ve seen tend to have the same ratings- nothing that stands out.
Thanks😊

Best Seine Dinner Cruise

Personally, I prefer a nice landside dinner followed by a nighttime cruise. The best of both worlds.

Agree 100%! That's what we've always done and have no regrets.

Since hubby "is wanting to consider a dinner cruise", tell him you've considered it and have decided against it. Disclaimer --- I'm not a divorce lawyer.

We did a dinner cruise in 2022. I thought it would be an upgrade from the standard outdoor river cruises and include dinner. And I made it a spendy surprise for my wife by going on the Ducasse sur Seine.

In summary the food was not that great and the reflections from the interior lights on the dining room windows made seeing any of the sights nearly impossible. That particular dinner cruise had very small exterior decks so that did not help either.

We're going back this spring and we'll be dining near the river before taking one of the outdoor seating river cruises this time as another poster suggested.
