Romance Ahoy ! Sometime between 7 and 7:30pm your hotel's recep-tion or the chauffeur will invite you to go out to your exception ride awaiting you at the foot of your building - a magnificent 1951 Bentley Mk VI.

Once comfortably settled down inside, you'll cut across the Parisian boulevards before waving at the Eiffel Tower. Just a few hundred yards away you'll discover the Quai de Grenelle, where your yacht will be moored.

When you arrive on the wharf, you'll climb out of your car and be welcomed by the captain of your ship. Your distinguished captain will graciously invite you aboard one of the French capital's most luxurious private yachts. The vessel's teak deck, steel hull and teak and mahogany wooden interiors will allow you to relish in the cozy atmosphere of a 1960s yacht.

As the boat pulls away from the port, you'll be offered a glass of delicious champagne on the heated and recoverable outside deck. With a glass in your hand, you'll be able to relax and fully enjoy the show put on by Paris and its riverbanks.

As the last rays of sunshine disappear behind the monuments, you'll admire their wonderful facades while locked in each other's arms and drifting away to the melodious harmonies of a Louis Armstrong number.

The most sumptuous natural heritage buildings will pass before your eyes : the Eiffel Tower, the Grand Palais, the Invalides, the Palais Bourbon, and later Place de la Concorde and the Musée d'Orsay...

Depending on the night's weather conditions, you'll retreat to either your table at the back of, or inside the yacht. You'll then sample the first delicious dish of your truly romantic dinner by candlelight. The discreet crew and waiter will look after your very need and ensure your greatest comfort and pleasure.

pon approaching the Pont des Arts, the yacht will suddenly reduce its speed and come to a gently halt. Two centuries ago this bridge was a real suspended garden adorned with small shrubs, flowers and benches while today, due to its elegance and spectacular viewpoints, it is considered THE lovers' bridge.

A few steps away from the Ile de la Cité while facing the Louvre, several red roses will subtly fall onto the ship's front deck...

To your partner's total amazement, a shower of roses will slowly begin to cover the fine wood trim !

The thousand roses will be released a bunch at a time in turn onto the front and sides of the yacht and will finish by completely immersing it in a bed of luscious red and green.

Several flowers will end their lovely journey on the surface of the river, enrobing the yacht in a sheet of deliciously colored, perfumed water...

The cruise ship will then take off once again on its enchanting course.

As you cruise smoothly alongside the Notre-Dame Cathedral, you'll enjoy an incredibly fine, gourmet dinner concocted by Christophe Courte and Didier Longeard ; two great chefs from la Maison Dalloyau (see the menu).
