Ben Tre, Mekong Delta
A sailboat, a kitchen, and a real Mekong Delta day.
A back-canal sailboat cruise and a hands-on cooking class, run by one family in Ben Tre. Slow, local, and real — with a room by the river if you'd like to stay the night.
About This Place
Just a good and quiet place on Mekong River.
Nẻo Sông Mekong is a small spot in Ben Tre — a homestay, a kitchen, and a boat on the water. Everything here runs at the pace of the delta: unhurried, local, and real. No performance. No tourist theatre. Just the Mekong as it actually is.
What We Offer
Sailboat Cruise
A 1.5-hour trip on a small sailboat through the back canals. Engine-powered, beanbag seating. The kind of canal most visitors never find — narrow, green, quiet. Runs morning and afternoon.

Cooking Class
Learn to cook two or three Mekong Delta dishes from scratch — in a home kitchen, with a local host. Market visit included. No scripted performance, just real cooking with real recipes you'll actually use.

Eat Here
Food cooked by the family — Mekong Delta recipes made with produce from the garden and the market. We don't run a restaurant. We run a kitchen, and you eat what we eat.

Riverside Stay — optional
Sleep a few metres from the water. Simple, clean rooms with the sound of the river at night. Breakfast included, made fresh each morning. A nice add-on if you want to stay the night.
