Paris, France
1 Star
The Experience
From Michelin Guide
Moored next to Passerelle Debilly, a footbridge spanning the Seine, on the right bank, opposite the Eiffel Tower, the Don Juan II is a magnificent Art Deco yacht, with sumptuous wood panelling and thick carpet. Embark on a 2.5hr-long sightseeing and gourmet cruise, with an outstanding chef, Frédéric Anton, at the helm! He has selected some emblematic creations from Le Pré Catelan (curry-scented crab, langoustine ravioli, warm chocolate soufflé…) with which to indulge his passengers. As you glide down the Seine, dinner is served against the backdrop of the most iconic monuments of the City of Light, with commentary by the crew.
