Get acquainted with the downtown of Paramaribo through our city tour. Together with our guide you walk through the streets of Paramaribo, where you will come across many buildings from the colonial past, such as the wooden Basilica Minor and the Presidential Palace. These buildings all have their own special history and uniform, symmetrical building style. The historical value of this architectural style results in a large part of Paramaribo being included on the international list of the UNESCO World Heritage.
The guide will inform you about the history of the Cathedral and if it is possible we will have a look around inside.
At the Independence square you will see the beautiful Presidential Palace and all the other historic buildings that are surrounded. Across of the square you have the waterfront and several small restaurants. Here you will find different Surinamese snacks and dishes.
While passing by the old fort the guide will inform you about the history of Fort Zeelandia and the several monuments that are surrounded in the area.
You will make your own way to the meeting points
All guides are dressed in grey t-shirts with the company and name badges.
