This tour is a 2-day getaway from Paramaribo into one of Suriname’s most peaceful and unspoiled district, Coronie. The journey takes you along the scenic coastal road, with a stop in Saramacca (Groningen), before arriving in Totness, Coronie for an overnight stay in a comfortable local accommodation.
On day two, a guided Agro Tourism experience brings you up close with Coronie’s authentic culture and craftsmanship, from herb gardens and beekeepers to historic landmarks and a lunch prepared by locals. The tour wraps up with a return to Paramaribo, or for those wanting more, an optional extension to the remote wilderness of Bigi Pan.
Your journey begins in Paramaribo, where you depart in the morning for a scenic drive along the coastal road heading west. Along the way, you make a stop in Saramacca (Groningen) to stretch your legs, take in the surroundings, and enjoy a brief visit to this historic area before continuing your route.
