St Laurent du Maroni

Getting there & around

St Laurent’s wide, colonial streets are perfect for wandering around on foot. A taxi to/from the Albina Ferry dock to/from within St Laurent costs about US$4 or you can walk it (about 2km).

Taxis collectifs leave when full for Cayenne (US$48, four hours) and Kourou (US$30, three hours) from the Gare Routière at the stadium.

ADA (27-94-82; 14 Av Hector Rivierez) and Hertz (34-19-81; Zone Industrielle) are the only car rental agencies in town – both charge exorbitant fees for one-way rentals to Cayenne.
