Lunch or Dinner Cruises on the famous Bateaux Mouches

Port de la Conférence
Pont de l’Alma, Rive Droite – 75008 Paris

For more than half a century," La Compagnie des Bateaux-Mouches®" has created joyful and memorable experiences for nearly one hundred million guests!
In 1949, avant-garde Jean Bruel invented the concept of "Bateaux-Mouches". Monsieur Bruel's
inspiration arose from his idea: "To offer visitors a tour of Paris from the city's most beautiful Boulevard - The Seine River".

The history of the name "Bateaux-Mouches"

At the beginning of the 18th Century, the "Mouches" were small light-weight boats that were designed for transporting merchandise throughout the tributaries of France. These boats were named "Mouches" because they were built at the "Felizate" yards in the Mouche district of Lyon. The "Mouche boats" evolved from transporting merchandise to
transporting people. Bateaux-Mouches continued serving the public for two hundred years.
After World War II, Jean Bruel wanted to create a rare ambience
for his fellow Parisians. He thought how wonderful it must be to visit
Paris on one of these "Fly-Boats" - while at once enjoying Classical

French Cuisine

He purchased one of the last remaining "Mouches" used for the
World Fair of 1900, and transformed it into a restaurant. As a result, he invented the touring/dining concept "La Compagnie des Bateaux-Mouches®"

Welcome Aboard!
