The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Step inside the haunting ruins of Devil's Island's notorious prison colony — solitary cells, guard towers, and the condemned men's chapel — with a knowledgeable private guide who brings Dreyfus, Papillon, and the Bagne to vivid life.
Cruise all three Salvation Islands — Île Royale, Île Saint-Joseph, and the fabled Île du Diable — aboard a private crewed catamaran, combining snorkeling in crystalline Caribbean-Atlantic waters with exclusive shoreside exploration.
Île Royale harbours one of the Caribbean's most accessible free-roaming scarlet macaw colonies alongside agoutis, coatis, and sea turtle nesting beaches — explore them with a naturalist guide in the cool of the morning.
Gain rare privileged access to the Guiana Space Centre — Europe's spaceport — including the Ariane 5/6 launch complex, the Jupiter control room, and the rocket assembly hall, guided by a space-industry insider.
Paddle deep into the primeval Amazon-edge rainforest and mangrove labyrinth of the Kourou River estuary, spotting caimans, tropical birds, and river dolphins on a small-group guided kayak with a certified wilderness guide.
Sit down to a private, market-to-table Creole feast prepared by a local chef in Kourou — cassava, court-bouillon of fresh river fish, plantain, and aged rhum arrangé — paired with a guided tasting of artisan French Guiana rums.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
