About this trip
Peperpot Nature Park is a former coffee and cocoa plantation that has been returned to secondary rainforest, now operating as a 700-hectare protected nature reserve approximately 30 minutes from Paramaribo. The site combines colonial agricultural history (founded 17th century) with substantial biodiversity, over 200 bird species, multiple monkey species, sloths and a healthy population of forest mammals.
Tours operate as either daytime (focus on birdlife and primates) or evening and night walks (focus on nocturnal mammals, frogs and insects). Both options are guided.
Highlights
Sloth sightings, two-toed and three-toed sloths near-guaranteed during daytime visits (resident population in mid-canopy)
Bird diversity, 200+ recorded species including toucans, parrots, hummingbirds and various raptors
Forest mammals, capuchin and howler monkeys, agoutis, occasional anteaters
Plantation history, preserved 17th-century plantation infrastructure including the manor house and processing buildings
Night tour option, distinct nocturnal experience with frogs, insects, occasional sightings of opossums and night birds
Included
Round-trip transportation from Paramaribo accommodation
Travel The Guianas is a Destination Management Company and tour operator based in Paramaribo, Suriname. For over two decades we have been the on-the-ground operator for travelers seeking real access to Suriname, Guyana and French Guiana, the three Guianas. We work across three countries, three languages and three currencies, handling everything in-house, from multi-country guided journeys to single day excursions and cruise ship shore programs.
We reach places most operators cannot, fly-in rainforest lodges 240 kilometers from the nearest road, overnight stays in working Maroon communities and Kaieteur Falls by scenic flight. We are also the leading ground handler for expedition cruise lines calling at Suriname. Book a single day out or a full three country expedition, you deal directly with the people who run the operation.
