1.Louvre Museum Entry Ticket With Host and River Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 9,926 reviews · 1 day · from $100Our pick

Review of the Louvre entry and Seine cruise package, with practical tips on timing, value, meeting points, queues, and what to expect.

“I think the Louvre Museum is a must. Also it is importante to have an audioguide to follow and understand what you are seeing. The audioguide is cool because is a Nintendo DS and you can follow depending where you are in the museum. I really enjoyed. Also the cruise was nice and it departures every 30 minutes and last one hour! The departure place is closed by the effeil tower, at night is pretty beautiful.”

See Big Ben, Tower Bridge, and London from the Thames and London Eye with practical tips on timing, value, weather, and tickets.

“The boat ride and London Eye ride were great. The instructions for a meeting spot were terrible. I thought we’d get some direction from a Viator rep, but we had to figure it out by ourselves. No one who worked at the boat or the Eye had any idea about Viator. So I sent two messages and got no response. It made for a frustrating experience. More detail needs to be given for meeting instructions.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 1,276 reviews · 1 day · from $45

Pair Rijksmuseum masterpieces with a one-hour Amsterdam canal cruise, including museum entry, multilingual audio, and practical booking tips.

“The Rijksmuseum was amazing. The cruise is the more touristy of the cruises you can get in Amsterdam. It’s also really hard to find the company as there is a whole row of canal cruise companies at the stipulated address. It is “Lovers” cruises you are after. Overall I think it’s a good activity for a day in beautiful Amsterdam.”
