Top tips for renting a car in French Guiana

  • Renting a car in French Guiana gives you the flexibility to visit off-the-beaten-path locations, remote areas, and attractions like the Amazon rainforest, wildlife reserves, and ecotourism sites that may not be easily accessible by public transportation. Renting a car can save you time compared to relying on public transportation, which often operates on fixed schedules. With a car, you can avoid waiting for buses or trains, and you won't be restricted by specific departure times.
  • French Guiana has a limited road network compared to many other regions. While major highways are generally well-maintained, some secondary roads and rural areas may have rough surfaces, potholes, or unpaved sections. Therefore, adjust your driving accordingly, especially when traveling off the main routes. Heavy rain can cause road surfaces to become slippery, especially in rural areas with unpaved roads. Exercise caution and reduce your speed when driving in wet conditions to ensure better traction and control.
  • A GPS navigation system can be beneficial when driving in French Guiana, especially if you are unfamiliar with the area, as it can provide turn-by-turn directions, helping you navigate unfamiliar streets, intersections, and roundabouts. It can guide you to your desired destinations, including attractions, accommodations, and other points of interest. In addition, consider hiring a local driver with an in-depth knowledge of the area for a smoother and more informed travel experience.
  • In French Guiana, the law requires appropriate car seats or restraint systems for children under a certain age and size. Infants and toddlers should typically be secured in rear-facing car seats. After that, they can transition to forward-facing car seats and later to booster seats. Besides, some rental companies may offer car seats for an additional fee, but availability may vary, so making arrangements in advance is recommended.
