Suriname
Suriname & history
True stories of Suriname
From colonial scars to ancestral power Suriname invites you to witness, remember and reconnect.
Suriname is a land of deep layers from Indigenous roots and African resistance to colonial imprints that still echo today. Once a Dutch colony built on enslaved labour, Suriname’s history is one of survival, uprising and powerful cultural synthesis.
From the Maroon communities who escaped and fought for their freedom, to the living legacies of Keti Koti and ancestral remembrance, Suriname offers a profound space for those seeking truth and reconnection.
GINI honours this complexity. We travel to Suriname not as spectators, but as listeners engaging with the land, the stories, and the people with reverence and care. Each experience invites us to step beyond surface travel and into a deeper kind of knowing.

Rooted travel
GINI impact travel Suriname
Travel that remembers, restores and reconnects grounded in Suriname’s truth and spirit.
At GINI, we believe travel should remember, restore and reconnect and Suriname embodies that fully. Our journeys here are crafted with intention, rooted in the following three pillars:
- Leave an impact – We design each journey with care and awareness, inviting travellers into responsible participation, not passive observation.
- Cultural remembrance – We honour Black and Indigenous legacies through storytelling, history walks and shared rituals that bring the past into present consciousness.
- Support local economies – A portion of every trip supports grassroots organisations, independent hosts and community-led initiatives across the country.
Travel to Suriname with GINI is not just a return to land, it’s a return to self, to truth, and to the stories that still matter.
