Day 3: Suriname – French Guiana - Space center
In the morning, we will drive to Albina, a border town in the east of Suriname. Here we will go through customs and depart across the Marowijne river by pirogue, a long, covered dug-out canoe, or with the ferry to St. Laurent, French Guiana. This will take approximately ten minutes, and in St. Laurent, we will pass through French customs. Then, we will drive to Kourou and visit the Space Center. Created in 1964 by the French space agency, the Space Center is a 700-sq. km site, and accommodates a number of different countries’ space programs. After our tour, you will check into your hotel in Kourou.(B)
