Suriname guides

Things to do in Suriname

Though Suriname is the smallest country in South America, it is rich in unspoilt natural beauty and steeped in history so why not experience this with a friendly personal guide from ToursByLocals. Having gained its independence from the Netherlands in 1975 its European influence is clear, particularly in the capital Paramaribo with its architectural style. Enjoy the blend of city life and nature in the Palmtree Garden. Visit Fort Zeelandia on the shore of the Suriname River built where the first colonists settled, which dates back to the 17th Century. It comes as no surprise the city gained UNESCO World Heritage status. Delve deep into the jungle of Brownsberg Nature Park where you can embrace a range of flora and idyllic waterfalls. You may even spot local wildlife which includes a red howler monkey. Our friendly personal guides offer a variety of tours but feel free to propose alternative sights and activities as they ultimately want you to have an experience of a lifetime.
