Our visit to Headout was great!!! We were in Paris with the French Language Center of Mrs. Evangelia Livanou, where our little daughter is studying and the visit to the aquarium was one of the most beautiful activities of our trip! It was great to meet Dory!!! We were also impressed by the jellyfish and the open aquarium with goldfish that we could pet. Finally, we were pleasantly surprised that by the time we reached the entrance, the problem that had arisen from us stealing our tickets alone was taken care of by the rest of our tour group. Team headout thanks so much for the friendly atmosphere and the wonderful experience!

A terrific way to spend the afternoon between the Eiffel Tower in the morning and the boat trip in the afternoon. The aquarium was fascinating and thoughtfully laid out with lots to see and interactive areas such as the Japanese Koi carp tank and QR choices to enhance knowledge.

We took our 3.5 yo grandson to the Aquarium. He really liked the Koi exhibit and touching the fish. He was not ready for the live shows and I did not realize there was a live mermaid show until later. I understand being in Paris it is in French, however English handouts would be nice as there are many visitors from all over there.

I found that despite the beauty of the aquariums and aquatic animals, the Little Prince show was very short, and I was also unable to find out when the Little Mermaid show would be on, which the little girl we were with wanted to see. We were very disappointed.

Taking a Seine River cruise in Paris was truly one of the highlights of my trip. From the moment we boarded, everything was smooth, well-organized, and inviting. The boat was modern and comfortable, with panoramic windows and an open-air deck that offered stunning views of the city. As we glided along the river, the sights were nothing short of breathtaking. Passing by iconic landmarks like the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame, the Louvre, and the Musée d’Orsay while the sun set and the city lights began to sparkle was an absolutely magical experience. Seeing Paris from the water gives you a unique and romantic perspective that you simply can’t get on foot. The commentary on board was informative but not overwhelming, giving just enough background to enrich the journey. I especially appreciated the peaceful atmosphere—perfect for relaxing, taking photos, or simply soaking in the beauty of Paris. Whether you’re visiting for the first time or returning to the City of Light, I highly recommend taking a Seine cruise. It’s a timeless experience that captures the heart and soul of Paris in the most elegant way.

Ticketing online was easy. The cruise was great! I loved that all the seats were outward-facing so you (almost) never had to look over people. We did the dusk cruise in March and got the best of both worlds by seeing Paris in the daylight and lit up in the dark, too. Would have loved a bit more info on the bridges and a bit more time to take pics (Pont Alexandre, especially), but overall, would definitely do again!

What I liked the most was hyperspace Mountain, a fast and enclosed roller coaster, like a trip in space. But I didn't rate it as a great experience because Big Thunder Mountain is closed, under repair 😭. The park is very nice, has lots of rides for little kids and a variety of themed restaurants. The most emotional part of Disneyland Paris is the parade of characters and the closing.

It was a great day with good weather. I had a nine-year-old girl with me who really enjoyed the street parade and the rides. The free WLAN only worked partially.

Disneyland is an experience in itself and sometimes very exhausting because of the long waiting times and the evening show is very late. There is definitely a lack of outdoor seating. The boat tour on the Sein was professionally run by the local companies. We were there very early and the boat was only half full. However, with the ticket we could have gone at a different time and on a different day. This should have been made clearer on the ticket or when booking. As it is now, it is confusing.
