3 Days Galibi Myrysji (Suriname)

This multi-day trip takes you to the authentic Galibi, the only indigenous village in Northern Suriname, where nature, culture and experience come together. You will travel through the northeastern districts of Suriname and even cross the border into French Guiana, with an adventurous boat trip on the border river being an important part. In Galibi, you will get to know the indigenous people of Christiaankondre and experience their traditions and way of life up close. During the turtle-laying season, this trip offers a special opportunity to witness sea turtles laying their eggs on the beach at night. The accommodation is simple and small-scale, allowing you to completely immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature and the rhythm of the village. This tour is ideal for travelers looking for an authentic, cultural, and natural experience far away from the crowd.
