Written by Pauline S. 08-11-2023

A superb family outing on our 7-year-old daughter's first trip to Paris. She loved the adventure, while the adults could admire more of the monuments along the Seine. A great time for all.

Star Star Star Star Star - Very average
Written by Françoise Vioux , 05-11-2023

Visitors at the back of the barge were a bit "forgotten" and couldn't take part in the entertainment... plus the microphone above the seats didn't work... I wouldn't recommend this activity... too expensive for what it is.

Star Star Star Star Star - original cruise
Written by Catherine TISON, 05-11-2023

Plus points: - use of sympathetic actors to play the 2 Miraculous heroes - easy web booking Minuses: - no real riddles for children to solve, as advertised - the link between the Parisian monuments in the story and the real setting on the Seine is too quick to be made. The same setting in a theater would have been more useful for getting to know or recognizing the various Parisian monuments, without being on board a bateau-mouche.

Star Star Star Star Star - Good but lacks sound
Written by haordeb, 05-11-2023

The children were very happy, but there were no explanations of the monuments as they went along, so there was no real point in it being on a bateau-mouche... and the sound was of poor quality. On the other hand, the actors are very good!

Star Star Star Star Star - Great for keeping the kids busy on the boat trip
Written by Anne Couvreur, 04-11-2023

The activity (all in a boat) was pleasant, but rather aimed at small children (8-9 years old is a big Max). It seems that the activity leaders tried to provide some cultural information, but as they spoke too fast and from too far away, we didn't understand a thing. It's a pity, because combining cultural/historical information with animation for children was a good idea.

Star Star Star Star Star - Playful stroll
Written by Magali Penin , 02-11-2023

Nice with my 8 year old daughter, the right age I think, she was really into the cruise, very good Paris gazette. The negative point is that the children are so focused on Ladybug and Black Cat that they don't look at the monuments, I had to tell my daughter several times. As for the booking, ras, very good. I would recommend this activity to other families.

Star Star Star Star Star - Disappointed
Written by Karine ALVES DIAS , 02-11-2023

+ the staff and characters are very welcoming and friendly. The characters move around a lot, interacting with all the children. - not enough links with the outside world and monuments. It moves very quickly, too quickly for children to understand the historical links and make the connection with the monuments. Easy online booking. We'd just have to point out that you have to pick up tickets at the ticket office on arrival. I recommend for children who are real Miraculous fans.

Star Star Star Star Star - A great time with your kids
Written by STEPHANIE RICHARD, 01-11-2023

The actors are great with children and their parents. In my opinion, the script is difficult to understand for children under 10, but on the other hand, it perfectly integrates the Parisian monuments we come across along the way. A sure recommendation! Area for improvement: online booking shows that all dates are almost fully booked or sold out. However, the cruise ship was only half-full, and we could even have come without booking and bought the tickets on the spot.

Star Star Star Star Star - Great activity with the kids
Written by Céline Wobmann, 30-10-2023

A great activity that the children enjoyed. Good quality of actors, but there's a bit too much going on on the boat, which doesn't allow the children to observe the monuments around them and make the connection with the story being played out. It's a bit of a shame, as it detracts from the interest of the cruise.

Star Star Star Star Star - A little disappointed
Written by Mohamed TRIA , le 26-10-2023

The concept is interesting: combine the miraculous universe with the monuments of Paris and get the kids involved. That said, certain elements are missing to make the animation a success: small screens with secondary characters and other videos and symbols, .... A simpler scenario... And more visual and musical animation. Otherwise, the animators are very good.

Star Star Star Star Star - Fun for the little ones
Written by Maud VILLA, 26-10-2023

Very playful, interactive show with Lady Bug and Chat Noir. Children (under 8) really enjoyed it (over 8, less enthusiastic). On the other hand, the show is purely recreational: explanation/commentary on Paris monuments almost non-existent, they're not even announced. If the objective is to discover the monuments of Paris (which was my case), this is not the right formula.

Star Star Star Star Star - experience to be recommended
Written by Pierre, 25-10-2023

The children really enjoyed it. Both actors played their roles well. Possible tip: have the actors show the children the buildings we pass, because the children are so caught up in the story and the acting that they don't look at the places we pass.

Written by Virginie AVEROUS, 09-10-2023

A great cruise for kids, to do with the whole family! It combines the fun aspect of miraculous, very attractive to children, with tourism and, above all, the historical and educational dimension. The adventure is very interesting and educational. The actors are great too! A guaranteed success, well worth the rather high price of the activity.

Star Star Star Star Star - A must-see experience for all children who are fans of Ladybug and Black Cat.
Written by Amandine VDS, 09-10-2023

I discovered this activity by chance on the Internet. I took my 2 children (aged 2 and a half and 5), fans of Lady Bug and Chat Noir. I had no particular expectations, well aware that linking cruising and culture for my children was a complex matter and that it was already very good to have this kind of proposal for young children (a really superb idea). And I wasn't disappointed, nor were the children. The actors are really in their roles, the texts are well written (Chat Noir has kept its sense of humor, and the staging is nice). They even try to convey a sense of history, the importance of freedom, and even some well-known buildings. They do their best to let the kids participate, listen to them and everyone gets a victory check at the end. Frankly, I'd read some not-so-great reviews of this animation and I find them unjustified for this season anyway (I wasn't there last year). They even used music from the last film. There's a miraculous store at the end. If you want to treat someone: go for it. My children were delighted and will remember it for a long time. As a mom, I was equally delighted with the cruise.

Star Star Star Star Star - An hour with Lady Bug
Written by valerie , on 11-09-2023

Hello, An hour spent in a boat on the Seine with the Miraculous characters during the heatwave. My daughter liked it, although she was a bit stunned by the energy of the two actors: it was difficult to understand them, both because of the young woman's rapid speech and because of the story. No reference to the monuments we passed and/or no precise plan to help us find our way around. Reference to last year, but we weren't there, so got lost again. Our 6-year-old loved it...especially the bubbles at the end and the well-known song....c is the main thing. It's expensive but she got glitter in her eyes. In addition to the 15euros for the photo. Bravo in any case for the two actors: 37C, in their costumes and still very dynamic!

Star Star Star Star Star - Not bad without more
Written by AGNES THOMAS, 09-09-2023

Easy online booking. Comfortable boarding and installation. Good visibility of the show. The actors do their best to make the show lively. They're very handsome. The problem: the texts are difficult to understand and too long for a young audience. The historical references are complicated for young children. We came with our 7-year-old granddaughter, who saw the film, but she wasn't all that enchanted. The other children weren't enthusiastic either. We should have shown the monuments. ESPECIALLY LESS TEXT

Star Star Star Star Star - Too fast
Written by Denis CASTELET, 01-09-2023

The costumes are superb and the acting perfect. But the flow of the text is too fast, and too much information has to be integrated at once. What's more, there's not enough emphasis on the relationship between the scenario and the Paris monuments visible from the boat. In short, it's a good idea, but there's room for improvement.

Star Star Star Star Star - Cruise very expensive for the service
Written by Sarah or Mohamed Haddad , 31-08-2023

Expensive miraculous cruise for 6 people ... The hourly service is not suitable for everyone. A lot of people didn't understand French and I could see the people on the boat falling asleep because the story itself wasn't interesting. My children only loved miraculous and chat noir in disguise, and even they were cold I thought... No connection. The photo is basic...and without the characters. Small point: black cat doesn't have green eyes. And miraculous doesn't have blue eyes, so it's a mistake anyway... There's work to be done ... The staff is cold... Too bad... I hope it will be better next year... To be seen...

The Parisian monuments play a role in the script: I'm a bit sorry that I had to be the one to point them out to the children. Point out Napoleon's N on the bridge, for example, and don't just use the actors' props. Nevertheless, the children were happy, and that's what counts! I'll be back at the end of August with the other three grandchildren!

Written by Ophélie, on 30-07-2023

A great time with the kids. The actors are very committed and attentive to the children's needs.

Star Star Star Star Star - Disappointed
Written by Claire Masson , 03-11-2022

The actors are all over the place and it's cute, but that's the only good thing about it. The fast-paced speech and alternating French and English make it difficult to understand. The children don't take their eyes off the actors, so they don't look at the monuments around them at all, which is a real shame. The riddles in the booklet are not suitable for 5-6 year-olds, and the volume is very loud, which is dangerous for the ears of little ones who often accompany the rest of the family on this kind of activity. The fact that you have to queue up to exchange a ticket you've already paid for and printed, in order to get a counter-ticket on the spot, is utter nonsense. The so-called special queue didn't open until 15 minutes before departure time, so those who waited were the last to get on the boat. Yes, you have to queue again to get on the boat, and it's long because there's a photographer who takes photos of each family, hoping to sell the photo at the exit (where you have to queue again to see the photo...). For an hour on the boat, we had to wait 1 hour, splitting up with my husband to be in the 2 queues at the same time (for the ticket then for the boat) and we were in the 2nd half of the people to get on. I'd say that if the kids aren't big Miraculous fans, don't go for this cruise, as our whole family was disappointed...

Very good, but it would be better for the child to have only one language for each cruise. The actors were great, but the kids were a bit lost with the translation. Some of the kids quickly lost interest! Interesting idea, but too bad!

Star Star Star Star Star - Good
Written by Marie GILLE, 01-10-2022

The actors' transitions from English to French are far too rapid. Children find it hard to understand and are quickly lost. It's a pity, because the games and the cruise are very enjoyable.

Star Star Star Star Star - Difficult to follow
Written by Julie C., on 13-09-2022

The concept is really interesting, the script rather nice and the actors very good, with good elocution in the 2 languages. However, mixing English and French in this context requires too great an effort of concentration. Children and adults alike are quickly lost, even with a good understanding of the 2 languages. For the price, it's rather disappointing.

Written by Cathy, 05-09-2022

Fun entertainment, but the French/English mix isn't easy for little ones. Despite e-tickets, queuing to collect vouchers not always well explained. The actors were perfect and got the kids involved. Not easy with their costumes and the heat.

Written by Rebecca Van der Zypen , 04-09-2022

De show is in het Engels en Frans. Ook al spreekt mijn dochter enkel Nederlands, ze was betoverd door het enthousiasme van de acteurs! We waren met veel op de boot, maar toch kregen we het gevoel dat we enkele keren echt persoonlijk contact hadden met de cat Noir en Ladybug waardoor we echt in het verhaal werden gezogen. Mijn dochter vond het zelf heel leuk dat ze haar "miraculeus" kreeg en op de gebouwen aanwijzingen moest zoeken. Via toneel op kinderniveau leer je de gebouwen langs de Seine kennen.

Star Star Star Star Star - Good organization but mixed experience
Written by Christine T, 02-09-2022

The reception is well organized, and the photos are pretty, if a little expensive. The animation with the 2 heroes is rather noisy, the games are well thought out, but the children are still confused by the bilingual aspect, although we must salute the great energy of the actors, with whom unfortunately the children can't take a photo, and their good English accent. This allows children to discover Parisian monuments with their favorite heroes, but I'm not convinced that they understood or retained much.

Great experience. The actors are amazing. As an adult, I'm a little disappointed that the dialogues are in French as well as English, as some information about the monuments is lost. My son was delighted with his morning and very proud to show his brother and sister the miracle of patience given by Ladybug and Chat Noir.

Written by Françoise , 26-08-2022

A fun cruise, but best reserved for children who can read and write. My 5-year-old grandson liked the characters overall, but the puzzles were a little too difficult for his age. Well done to the very committed actors and the very welcoming crew.

Star Star Star Star Star - Fun activity
Written by H.L., 24-08-2022

The actors were a lot of fun and tried to get the kids involved as much as possible. It's a pity that the boat doesn't always let you see the monuments properly, despite the Plexiglas roof. The middle seats are a little less interesting. The search for clues sometimes goes a little too quickly, even if we understand that there's a timing to be respected. It would be nice if the embarkation point were better indicated at the docks, to avoid missing the cruise. But all in all, a fine cruise, much appreciated by the children.

Obliged to queue up again at the ticket office when we arrived, even though we already had our tickets, the boat company imposes the printing of a counter mark in order to validate entry into the boat. We thought we'd save time, but we didn't. A great activity in itself for the kids.

Written by Nikolina, 17-08-2022

My children and I really enjoyed the acting and the puzzles. On the negative side, although I had prepaid tickets and booked several days in advance, I had to wait again at the cash desk - at least it must have been mentioned on the tickets to allow more time in advance. We also couldn't see certain buildings depending on where we were sitting. Overall, it was a good experience, just these two points to improve.

Star Star Star Star Star - Uneven
Written by Sophie SULTANA, 15-08-2022

Overall, my son liked the idea of the games and puzzle solving, and seeing his favorite characters in real life. He liked the notebook and is going to keep it, as well as the pencil. It's still a cruise on the Seine, and it's pleasant and enjoyable in that respect. Firstly, I didn't understand the point of reserving and paying for tickets several days in advance, only to be told when the time came that they couldn't be scanned, and that I'd have to queue again (a very long time, considering the number of people waiting and the mix of people waiting: those who wanted to buy a ticket they didn't have, and those like me who had to exchange the electronic ticket for a paper one to show). Worried about the passage of time, I went to speak to the people controlling the entrance to the boat and they assured me that no one would leave without us. Well, that's exactly what happened, and if I hadn't called out to someone again, we wouldn't have made the trip. So we got on last, and there was no more room at the front, and not enough to place us all together. Where we were placed, we couldn't hear very well, even if the people were moving around. Next: I'm not convinced by the idea of alternating English and French. It may not be possible to separate the cruises by language, but switching from one language to the other made things confusing. I think my son picked it up pretty quickly, that and because the puzzles were rather complicated for little ones (5 and under).

Star Star Star Star Star - nonsense
Written by Tefi Reina, 13-08-2022

What we liked: animation, travelogue What we didn't like: the characters kept running and shouting, a bit annoying. One character was missing to complete the play! We had booked on Tuesday and 3 weeks before I was contacted to change the date or be reimbursed (this changed our program of visits to Paris). Then on arrival with my voucher, the Parisian boats never found us on the list. We were added to the list, luckily there were seats available. The stage is not yet perfected, my daughter remembered 2 monuments out of all the monuments that were mentioned in the form of games, maybe because it was a bit hectic?..but otherwise the concept is good. To be continued.

Written by Lily and Will, 02-08-2022

What we really liked were the actors, bravo to them and their dynamism, which is not easy in this heat. The idea of a fun tour of the monuments was also well thought out. But in the end, you don't really get to see the monuments, as the children play but don't really look. The boat isn't very well suited to this if you're not on the window side. With the French-English mix, my son was a bit lost. We'll do a classic fly boat again, but with the roof in the open air. A little goodie in addition to the pencil would have been welcome.

There were 5 of us, 2 adults and 3 children! The actors were great, but understanding their words was much less so, and it's not the diction but the fact that they say the text in French then in English then in French then in English ... in short everyone gets lost and we can't react despite their efforts because we understand nothing and the sound is average! In short, everyone got lost and we couldn't react despite their efforts, because we couldn't understand anything and the sound was average! It should be done in French with an English booklet for tourists, or with headphones translating the text. Otherwise it was pleasant.

Covered boat, greenhouse effect guaranteed, prefer bcp of water as you won't get any! Characters present, it's great, and a little bag offered! Of course, there's the photo trap to buy at the end (taken at the beginning and impossible to take with the characters). Be careful, the story mixes English and French; for adults I thought it was well done, but for the very young it's hard to follow.

Star Star Star Star Star - Good overall, but organization needs to be reviewed
Written by Séverine COLLANGE, 30-07-2022

Fun activity for the kids. The actors try to get through the aisles as much as possible. Too bad for the kids in the back who don't get to enjoy it. As far as organization is concerned, there are things to be reviewed. We bought our tickets and then reserved our slot on your site, which enabled us to have dematerialized tickets. When we got there, a young person went through the queue to check that we'd registered. When we got to ticket control, we were asked to get paper tickets at the counter. In 2022 and in the age of the QR Code (present on various documents), it's shameful to have to print out paper tickets.

We had a great time: discovering monuments with the riddles. The problem was that it was very noisy, as there were far too many of us. Ah yes, what annoyed me was that the actors spoke more English than French, the 2 languages were mixed with the hubbub it was difficult to follow everything. And yet I think the French were in the majority? Why not have an English-only slot? It's a children's outing after all, and speaking English and French mixed together doesn't help.

It's unacceptable to offer a cruise to children in alternating French and English, impossible to follow, especially for what is supposed to be a puzzle game.

Riddles in the brochure poorly constructed and uninteresting. A big disappointment for my daughter, who was expecting better than this! In short, the concept is fine, but the organization is not.

Written by Ho, 16-07-2022

Exceptionally hot and no fans or air circulation on boat. Was very difficult to enjoy what was going on because we were profusely sweating in the heat and there was no fans besides the first row to cool off all the bodies on the boat. Would suggest checking the weather before u book. Also boat is mostly in French w hints of w/ English. The kids seemed to enjoy the Ladybug and Cat Noir appearance but it was hard to follow or do the puzzle hunt. We probably wouldn't recommend as our kids couldn't follow what they were supposed to do. Reservations were easy to make.

Star Star Star Star Star - There's no cultural input
Written by Déborah, 16-07-2022

I gave this cruise to my 2 daughters, aged almost 5 and 8. The surprise effect of the characters is nice, it makes for a show. But apart from that, there's no cultural contribution. It's very difficult to follow the show because the dialogue is French/English. Children can't understand it, so they lose interest. On top of that, we were on the wrong side of the boat, so we couldn't see the buildings we were supposed to observe during the puzzles. The kids enjoyed seeing their favorite characters, but there was clearly nothing left of the monuments. It's a shame.

Star Star Star Star Star - Nice but...
Written by STEPHANIE LEFEVRE, 06-07-2022

When you arrive at the quay, it's easy to find the pontoon - it's very well signposted. In the queue, someone comes to check your tickets and asks you to go through the ticket office again. I don't understand the point of setting up online tickets if you have to queue again at the ticket office... waste of time. Pick-up on the boat was fine. As for the cruise, I had understood that each child would be equipped with a helmet, but in fact not at all. The animators gave explanations by microphone. Despite their willingness to speak softly and articulately, the noise is such that you can hardly understand anything. Indeed, the boat is full of children... I thought this was a pity, and that the system should be reviewed. Also, this cruise isn't fun enough, it lacks a presentation of the monuments and Paris to the children, and a little culture would have been welcome, especially as the Miraculous cartoon is full of knowledge. My 6-year-old daughter greatly appreciated the proximity of the animators, even if she didn't understand the riddles because of the noise. Indeed, each of them took the time to go through the rows, to stop a few moments after the children and even to come and greet them at the end. All in all, it was a great experience for the children, but some things could be improved.
