Wanting to do the Paris Illumination and Seine River Cruise tour our first night in Paris. What is the best tour to take?? Would you do the bus of minibus? Can you take decent pictures while on the bus. Thanks Sarah

did the night river cruise last year (late summer) and it was great. However it can get pretty cold on the water; be sure to bring a warm jacket.

hello sarah - the last time i saw paris i did the siene river criuse at night - it was beautiful. the narrator was excellent in pointing out the different sights and relating the history of the bridges. it's also good in the daylight, as you can see everything else that at night is in the shadows. have never done buses in paris, so can't answer that, although it would seem that your camera best be fast if the bus is moving.

We've done both and enjoyed the river cruise but the Illumination tour was a bore and a waste of time and money.
