Seine River (Bateau-mouche route near Quai de la Tournelle)

The river-boat sequence, shot on a working bateau-mouche along the stretch past Notre-Dame. From Quai de la Tournelle you watch that stretch from the bank. To ride it as they do, cruises leave from other piers, for example Bateaux Parisiens at Port de la Bourdonnais near the Eiffel Tower: check the route with the operator.
