Suriname
Easy going for Dutch people, speaking Dutch in a country in south america. In former Dutch colony Suriname you can.
The best is to use Paramaribo as a base to discover the rest of the country. Near Paramaribo you can visit old slavery plantages, rent a bike in the capital and cycle through the plantages. Take a boat and join an overnight trip across the Suriname river. Visit Brownsberg national park and Brokopondo reservoir. If you have some more time, take a canoe into the jungle. Just before you enter the jungle visit French Guiana and buy a croissant and pay with euros. I took a canoe for 9 days and went across the Marouini river and the Tapanahoni river to Granda Futu, less than 100 kilometers from Brazil.
I travelled 23 days through Suriname in 2007 with Sawadee. If you want more information about this trip click here.
