Our itinerary
Welcome to French Guiana Trips!
French Guiana Trips are designed for space professionals eager to experience the region’s extraordinary blend of biodiversity, cultural richness, and space exploration. This 10-day journey offers a unique opportunity to explore one of the world’s most fascinating environments - where the Amazon meets space technology.
​Travellers can expect moderate adventure - hiking, swimming, and kayaking through lush landscapes, scenic flights over the rainforest canopy, and evenings of stargazing beneath equatorial skies. Along the way, participants connect with local communities, including Hmong and Amerindian peoples, who share their heritage and traditions within this diverse cultural mosaic.
​
The highlight of the trip is a one-of-a-kind visit to the Guiana Space Centre (CSG), generously hosted by the European Space Agency (ESA), offering unique access, personal encounters with professionals, and a rare glimpse of life at Europe’s Spaceport. And with a bit of luck, you might even witness a rocket launch!
