About Us
Our Team
We love food, we love art, we love adventure, we love travel and we love sharing it with you! Starting back in 2013 when founder, Ducky, visited Cambodia and looked for a food tour but there wasn’t one in the whole country!! She packed up her life in Australia and re-located to Phnom Penh to eat her way around the city, and share the often under-represented Khmer Cuisine, with all those who would listen. We are now sharing the foraging love in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap, offering hand picked, curated tours, for those wanting to see past the tourist traps!

Chum Reap Sour! I’m Moni, a street art and food tour guide based in Phnom Penh. It has been two months that I have been working with Urban Forage. Honestly speaking I like everything about the tour because it is very diversified. For the Street art tour, you do not only learn about the artists but also hear the interesting stories behind each Wall painting. On the top of that a chance to explore the unfrequently corners of Phnom Penh. Let’s say every corner has its own story! As for food tour, I like Num Banh Chok with Khmer soup the most, a traditional Khmer dish that worth a try when you are in Cambodia.
