Avoid! - Edit
Booked the cruise as a treat for my wife and we were really looking forward to it. Specified the vegan meal when booking.
Read moreAlarm bells started ringing as soon as they bought the starter out. The gazpacho was fine but it came with the vegetable tartine with cream cheese. We told the waitress that we were vegan and she asked if we could eat the cheese or not. When we said no she came back with a replacement with no cheese.
For the main course we were asked if we wanted chicken or salmon. We again explained that we were vegan which was noted down. The main course was roasted vegetables with thyme oil. It was actually quite nice, but unfortunately i am now convinced there was pesto in it. I thought it tasted a bit creamy but I couldn’t quite place where or what it could be. Upon rechecking the menu online back at our hotel yes indeed, the non vegan option has pesto on it but the vegan one shouldn’t. I really wish I’d now double checked with the waitress at the time.
Finally we get to dessert and of course they tried to give us the non vegan option. After waiting some time for the vegan option of pineapple carpaccio and ginger, we finally get.....chopped pineapple.
It is frustrating as if they are going to advertise a vegan menu they should at least do it properly and train their staff on our requirements!
The actual river cruise itself was nice, but quite frankly there are many vegan friendly places in Paris so in future I’d just go somewhere else and book in on any other river cruise afterwards!
If you are still insistent on booking i would recommend you emphasise as soon as you get on board that you are vegan and keep reaffirming it with every course!
Pros: The cruise itself was quite pleasurable!
Cons: Staff have no knowledge on veganism whatsoever

Food and experience okay. - Edit
At night there is such a glare on the windows it’s hard to actually see the sites. They also don’t announce them or tell you about them. This seems to be more geared toward a couple celebrating a birthday or a romantic night out. The vegan starter was butternut squash soup, the main was just roasted veggies with more butternut squash soup, and the dessert was fruit. I’m glad I did it for the price since I wanted to be on the Seine and needed to eat dinner, but if you’re not trying to cram a bunch of stuff into a few days it might not be worth it
