Fully equipped spaces for your plenaries, workshops and study days on the water

Corporate seminar on a privately hired boat in Paris

Why host your seminar on a boat?

A corporate seminar on a boat in Paris takes your teams out of their usual environment and sparks collective creativity. Where a hotel seminar tends to be forgotten, a day on board remains a memorable experience that strengthens engagement and team cohesion.

The other benefit is logistical: everything is on site. Plenary in the morning, lunch served on board, workshops in the afternoon, closing cocktail facing the Eiffel Tower: no transfers, no room to find.
