Program

Day 1
The day has arrived for you to set off for our special spot on the Suriname River. In the morning, we’ll be waiting for you at our office in Paramaribo, where you’ll be given a brief introduction whilst enjoying a cup of coffee. You’ll then hop straight into the car and head south towards the interior. After a drive of about an hour and a half, during which you’ll pass the old Suralco bauxite factory and an Indigenous village, you’ll arrive in the village of Powakka.Here, you’ll stop at Mr 'Kleine’s' house, where he’ll enthusiastically tell you all about the Indigenous people of Suriname. On his property, he brews Indigenous specialities, and with his tips and tricks, you’ll get to try your hand at using local produce such as cassava. You’ll sample an Indigenous beer and enjoy freshly baked cassava. You’ll then continue by bus to Seliba.This is where your luxury camping adventure begins. At Seliba, you don’t have to do anything, but there’s plenty to do. Are you a real water lover? Then hop onto one of the SUP boards that are ready and waiting. Do you just want to relax and cool off? Then you can also lounge by the pool.
Day 2
It’s lovely to wake up to the sound of howler monkeys living on the little island opposite Seliba. Every morning is a veritable concert of monkey howls and chirping birds. After a cup of coffee or tea, it’s lovely to wander around with your camera or binoculars and see the rare birds up close, such as toucans and hummingbirds that literally flit past your ears. Are you up extra early? Then head out onto the water with your guide and paddle towards the sunrise. Can’t get enough of the jungle? Together with your guide, you can go for another walk to spot more birds, monkeys and wildlife. After breakfast, you’ll have time for a refreshing dip in the pool or some activities on the river. Once you’ve finished lunch, it’s time to say goodbye to this magical spot in Suriname and swap your glamping teepee for the bus journey to Paramaribo.
