Batobus or not Batobus that is the question!

I've been advised to consider the Batobus as a way to get around in Paris to give our feet a rest. can some one tell me whether Batobus is worth doing?

I visited Paris for a week with my parents and found Batobus a great way to get around and if I remember well, we only paid $30 for a 5 day pass. The first day we arrived and used it for an enjoyable 90 minute boat trip to see and take pictures of buildings, bridges, monuments.

If you plan to see all the museums in Paris and walk around a lot, you will love using the Batobus, especially after a long day of walking. The best thing about the Batobus is that you can hop on and off at every stop making touring Paris bliss!

When we went to Paris, we walked the entire city, which was an altogether filling experience in itself, but the Batobus was certainly a blessing over the next couple of days. It allowed us to revisit some of our favorite sites, and we could get on and off as many times and places as we liked without incurring any additional fees, as it would with the metro or the regular city bus or taxi. That was probably the best part, really. We could tour the city over and over again, relaxed, no stress, just hang out and let the city of Paris speak to us and get off and see something new every time. We really had a lot of fun with the Batobus, especially just driving by the buildings and monuments, taking pictures at random and of each other. And in my opinion, it isn't really a splurge. It's reasonable enough to get your tickets without regret, even if you don't use it nonstop during your visit. Enjoy your trip!
