Say goodbye to Paramaribo, and hello to the verdant Brownsberg Nature Park. It's a paradise for nature and wildlife admirers. Then, experience the rich cultural heritage of the Maroon people in Maroon Village. It's a little far away from the modern world, but isn’t that part of the charm?

Day 6 - The Coastal Charm of Coronie

Your adventure continues in Coronie, a coastal district. This isn’t your typical beach destination. It's an oasis of coconut trees and quaint cottages colored in a feast of pastels, providing a different flavor to Suriname’s already rich cultural smorgasbord.

Day 7 - Farewell to Suriname

Your journey comes to an end as you head back to Paramaribo. Reflect on your adventure at Garden of Palms, a tranquil spot in the city. Eventually, it's time to bid adieu to this hidden gem of South America, with nature’s wonderland woven into your heart forever.
