Suriname Travel Guide: 392 reviews and 973 photos

Suriname, a magnificent name to remember!

My journey starts very tiresome but rewarding and enjoyable. Its took us approx. 9 hrs travelling by land and sea to Paramaribo. We crossed from Guyana (Moleson Creek) to Suriname Port (South Drain with a smooth crossing with the Guyana-Suriname Ferry to the port and journey through trails to Paramaribo.
The smiling faces and friendly welcoming of the Surinames enchant your spirit.
Every country culture is so unique which makes me so enthusiactic about it, Suriname culture is so dynamic that it passes down from generation to generation.
Suriname, a country of rich culture and multi race comprising of Bush negroes, Amerindians, Javanese, Chinese, Hindustanis, Indies. Its mother language is Dutch and its creole known as the tackie tackie Dutch which you hear among the people, England is also being spoken and the Netherland.
