The journey takes you through the districts of Saramacca and Coronie. The first stop is at Weg naar Zee, where you visit a Hindu temple, an important pilgrimage site, and a nearby crematorium.

In Saramacca, known for livestock farming and the cultivation of rice and vegetables, you explore Groningen, the main town.
