Great night, great vibe and well organised but very busy with other groups etc. Night was good but tables in Moulin Rouge were very tightly packed.

The moulin rouge was amazing. Staff on the tour were very friendly and the bus dropped us back at our hotel which was not specified in the tour and a big plus!

This was an event that we could have organized ourselves but as we only had a weekend in Paris it was great that someone else did the organizing for us. It was a great evening - everything so there were no surprises, even the wait in a huge queue to get into Moulin Rouge. Not cheap but great value because you get what you pay for. Thank you

The river cruise was good. The Moulin Rouge show was entertaining but in the end quite repetitive. The dancing was good, the costumes colourful, the dancers beautiful, the acts excellent - BUT - the dancing was all about showing beautiful bodies and became repetitous after a while.

It was very well organised from the moment I booked it. The Seine Cruise was the perfect start to the evening. Moulin Rouge was a good show, waiters were slow with the drinks if you traded the champagne in for a spirit, seating was a bit hit and miss - we were okay as there was only 4 of us - but another party of 8 were split up on 3 different tables.

Cruise was great and what we expected. Moulin Rouge was something you should do once to tick off - certainly an experience. It is VERY cramped in there, so don't expect to be thet comfortable, or to get anything to drink other than the one that's on the table at the start.

Show was impressive in places but the male dancers were poor and we would have expected performers to be singing live for €100 a head! Watching a range of performers mime to a belting soundtrack got a little tedious after a while.

Still - definitely something to do once and I would recommend it.

The staff on the tour were very helpful, friendly and organised. The bus was great and dropped us off to our hotel which was unexpected. We loved the Moulin Rouge. The only problem was the river cruise. It was sold in the package as a romantice river seine cruise which it was anything but. It was a huge ferry boat filled with teenages and hundreds of other people who were not going to the moulin rouge. We were all dressed up and expecting a nice cruise with our tour, not just the regular ferry full of people. We couldn't even get seats together on the ferry. The staff on the ferry however were very informative, and we had some nice professional photos taking which was great. Over all it was not a bad experience we were just disappointed that it was nothing like we expected. Other than that we thoroughly enjoyed the rest of the tour and would recommend it to others.

Extremely well organised and the tour guides were exceptional! The Seine river trip is an absolute must, the Moulin Rouge was spectacular, but too long! Made for a very late night, so don't plan an early start the next day. Many thanks to all at City Discovery for running such a smooth operation.

We really enjoyed the cruise and seeing the Eiffel Tower lit up at night.The Moulin Rouge show was very entertaining but you get no service once
from the wait staff once you are seated!
