Suriname Tours & Holidays

Suriname offers something genuinely rare in modern travel—authentic exploration of territories that remain truly off the beaten track. While neighboring Brazil sees millions of tourists and even Guyana is gaining recognition, Suriname stays wonderfully under the radar. This means pristine rainforests without tourist infrastructure, villages where traditional life continues unchanged by outside influences, and wildlife habitats undisturbed by human crowds. The country’s cultural diversity creates fascinating contrasts—one day you’re exploring Dutch colonial architecture in Paramaribo (a UNESCO World Heritage site), the next you’re staying in remote Maroon villages where African drums echo through the jungle. Our small group tours keep things intimate with just 12 people maximum, and we offer both escorted (with dedicated UK tour leader) and unescorted (local guides only) options to match your travel style and budget.

What Makes Our Suriname Holidays Different

Suriname offers a rare sense of remoteness. Much of the interior is accessible only by river, and encounters with wildlife and local communities happen naturally, not as staged experiences. Travel here feels quiet, unrushed, and genuinely off the beaten path.

Culturally, the country is diverse and welcoming. Visits to Maroon and Amerindian communities, as well as time in Paramaribo, provide real insight into daily life and traditions rather than organised performances.

Tours can be either fully escorted with a UK tour leader or guided locally at each stage, allowing flexibility based on travel style and budget.

Some itineraries also include neighbouring Guyana and French Guiana, offering a broader regional perspective and highlighting how different histories shaped similar rainforest landscapes.
