Soak up the Parisian ‘joie de vivre’ on an unforgettable night out, comprising a 3-course dinner, a Seine River sightseeing cruise and an iconic French cabaret show. After being wined and dined at the fashionable Les Ombres restaurant, cruise along the Seine River, passing elegantly illuminated attractions like Notre Dame Cathedral and the Louvre. End your evening with more glitz and glamor at one of Paris’ top cabarets: Moulin Rouge or Lido de Paris!

Either start your evening with a hotel pickup by luxury minivan (Moulin Rouge option only), or make your own way to Les Ombres restaurant; the choice is yours! If you book the option with hotel pickup, your friendly host will explain the logistics of your evening on the short journey, giving you peace of mind for a hassle-free night out in Paris.

Les Ombres is one of Paris’ must-visit restaurants; perched on the panoramic rooftop terrace of Quai Branly Museum, the restaurant boasts unsurpassed views of the Eiffel Tower lit up at night. Dine from a 3-course set menu while soaking up the ambience of this stylish restaurant, designed by renowned French architect Jean Nouvel.

After dinner at Les Ombres, your host will collect you for the short journey to the waterfront for your 1-hour Seine River cruise. Take a window-side seat in the boat’s lower saloon or walk around on deck, seeing all the illuminated attractions that line the river’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed riverbanks. Pass under Pont Neuf, Paris’ oldest bridge, and see Notre Dame Cathedral and the Louvre. Listen to the audio commentary as you cruise or simply sit back and take in the sights. After an hour, disembark your boat, meet your guide and then head to the cabaret of your choice.

Moulin Rouge:
At the Moulin Rouge, you’ll be entertained by its famous show ‘Féerie.’ Risqué and raucous yet somehow refined, the performance is skillfully danced by the cabaret’s Doriss Girls, adorned in eye-catching costumes of shimmering sequins and bright feathers. Sit at your table, sip Champagne (one half-bottle included) and admire the show’s complex choreography, featuring the instantly recognizable French cancan. ‘Féerie’ finishes in the early hours of the morning, and your host will then drop you back off at your hotel.

Lido de Paris:
The Lido, on the Champs-Élysées, is known for its popular show ‘Bonheur.’ Telling the tale of a young woman’s search for happiness through captivating dance routines, ‘Bonheur’ is danced by the cabaret’s talented Blue Bell Girls and Lido Boys. At your table, sip a glass of Champagne and then sit back to marvel at the decadent costumes, clever stagecraft and atmospheric music. The show finishes in the early hours of the morning, and your host will then drop you back off at your hotel.
