What to see and do with your Car Rental in French Guiana

The coastal city of Cayenne has a relaxed, tropical atmosphere. It has a vibrant nightlife, with various life-music clubs, as well as many interesting museums where you can take in its rich history. Outside of the city there is so much to see as well. A short drive away in a car rental, visitors can experience the beaches of Rémire-Montjoly, and hike to the top of Montagne du Mahury to witness its breath-taking views. Other attractions well worth the visit include the pristine village of Cacao and the majestic L'Amana Natural Reserve. There really is no better way to experience the beauty of this country other than with Sixt car hire in French Guiana.
