🌍 Explore Suriname

Beyond the city, a country full of life.


Suriname is a place of layers — rivers, jungle, colonial towns, Maroon villages, plantations, and stories that stretch across oceans. When you stay with us at Hotel Palacio, you’re in the best possible place to begin.

This page isn’t just a list. It’s a feeling. A starting point. A reason to wander.



🗣️ “We’ll help you choose the right route for your pace, your time, and your spirit.”

🏙 Paramaribo — The Soulful City

• UNESCO World Heritage historic centre

• Wooden colonial homes, cultural houses, riverfront street food

• Art walks, cafés, churches, mosques, synagogues — often side by side

• Best explored by foot, bike, or with a guide we know by name

☀️ Spend at least 2 full days here. The rhythm reveals itself slowly.

🌳 Commewijne River & Plantation Belt

• Short boat or bike ride from the city

• Visit former Dutch plantations, restored cacao houses, and riverside villages

• Watch dolphins where the river meets the ocean

• Taste Javanese snacks and fresh sugarcane juice along the way

🛶 We can book boat trips or e-bike tours, with local guides who love to share the land’s story.

🌿 Brownsberg Nature Park & Bergendal

• 2–3 hour drive from Paramaribo

• One of Suriname’s most scenic jungle reserves

• Hiking trails, waterfalls, bird watching, and howler monkeys

• Combine with a day pass or overnight at eco-resort Bergendal

🗣️ “Guests say this is where they really exhale — and feel the forest listening.”

🪶 Upper Suriname (Maroon Territory)

• Remote, river-only access — 3+ hours by car + boat

• Stay in a traditional lodge run by local communities

• Hear drum rhythms at night, see hand-carved pirogues, learn ancestral knowledge

• Ideal for 2–3 night getaways

☀️ We work with partners who do this with respect, not intrusion. Let us arrange it right.

🏞️ Galibi & the Atlantic Coast

• North-eastern coast, accessible via Albina + boat

• Nesting sea turtles (seasonal), quiet Amerindian villages, mangrove-lined estuaries

• Travel by boat to the border of French Guiana

🐢 Best visited March–August for turtle season. Quiet, raw, and deeply local.
