Phnom Penh's Forgotten Neighbourhood Tour

We’ll explore a vibrant creative neighborhood shaped by a complex past, where bold street art and colorful murals tell stories of resilience and hope. This open-air gallery showcases local and international artists who blend tradition with modern expression, transforming the walls into a living canvas. As you wander through, you’ll feel the energy of a community that has reinvented itself through creativity, offering a unique and inspiring glimpse into the city’s artistic heart.

Hidden Alley Street Art

Next stop, we’re ducking into one of Phnom Penh’s best-kept secrets. Tucked away behind the main street, this narrow passage has become a rotating canvas for local and international artists. The murals here change every six months, so there’s always something new to discover, bold colors, fresh ideas, and stories painted straight onto the walls. It’s a hidden corner of the city where creativity never stands still.

Sunset on the Mekong, watching city life on the rivers.

Board the boat and head out onto the Mekong and Tonle Sap, where Phnom Penh’s daily life unfolds along the banks. Fishermen cast nets, children play by the water, boats carry goods and commuters, and riverside communities go about their routines. As the sun sets, the Royal Palace and city skyline catch the light, while you sip free-flow beer and soft drinks and watch the city’s pulse from the water. A different perspective on Phnom Penh, where the river defines the rhythm of urban life.

A Taste of the Tour:

This isn’t a checklist tour, it’s a way of seeing Phnom Penh differently. We focus on the city’s in-between spaces: hidden murals down quiet lanes, evolving walls that may not exist tomorrow, and neighbourhoods most visitors pass by. Street art here isn’t polished or preserved — it’s layered, fleeting, and tied to a city constantly rewriting itself. We don’t just point at artwork — we trace the stories behind it, linking contemporary expression to Cambodia’s past and present. As the evening shifts, step onto the mighty Mekong River as Phnom Penh softens. Skyline glowing, air cooling, the city reveals a slower, quieter rhythm. Sip a drink as stories of art, history, and riverside life drift past. It’s about seeing what’s easy to miss and leaving with a deeper sense of the city.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a memorable introduction to Cambodia. Guide Jackson and two of Urban Forage's regular drivers did an exceptional job with the Phnom Penh Morning Market and Street Art by Tuk Tuk. I direct booked via their website  last night (it's low season) and got immediate WhatsApp messages sorting out my shellfish allergy and promising the daily tour would  go ahead even though I was the only one signed up. Three friends wound up joining — two literally at the last minute. On this half art/half food tour all over Phnom Penh, we were treated to a first breakfast, second breakfast and surprise ending. We discovered art and the stories behind it in a coffeeshop, on the street, in a gallery and in a public square. Jackson's English is perfect and he took care to ensure I avoided hidden oyster sauce, shrimp paste and dried shrimp. And hearing that one of us was celebrating a birthday, they quickly decorated both tuk tuks with balloons! You couldn't ask for more from a tour.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a great morning with Jackson our guide and Mr Lucky our Tuktuk driver in Phanom Penh. Started the morning with a visit to a local market for some great breakfast and the most delicious Cambodian Donuts then  Jackson took us to the Street with the murals and stopped again for more delicious food. This is a great way to start your morning in Phanon Penh and see the sites eat some delicious food. Highly recommend this tour ask for Jackson and Mr Lucky.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jackson and his driving partner a 1 fantastic people pro using local knowledge in a fun, intimate manner.  Enjoy countless classic “street food” samples,  some familiar, some very local but all fantastically fresh, delicious and specific to Cambodian culture.  The street food is the “appetizer” sort to speak because you wind up at a long standing family restaurant for a sit down dinner with a variety of delicious dishes offered.

Great experience, well worth the time & money!
Go and enjoy!!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Whether you’re getting your bearings on Cambodian food or looking to try something more unique, this is a perfect food tour. Highly recommend a private tour if you want to customize or up the adventurousness - as a repeat visitor to Phnom Penh, Urban Forage really delivered for me on the later. My personable guide was so fun and easy to talk to, and I loved learning from him during the over four hours we spent zipping around the city. A lifetime travel highlight for sure.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very nice tour! It was our first day in Cambodja and we wanted to get to know the local kitchen, JB took excellent care of us and we tried a lot of cambodian food. Drove everywhere with the tuktuk and got beer and water on the way. Definitely a must-do!!

 Verified Great local experience
A happy evening tour of small eareries, most street vendors or market operators. The food is authentic and you are dining among locals. Beers aplenty which compliments the food as Jacko, our guide provides fascinating commentary and insights into being a resident in Phnom Penh. The people watching was awesome, a real treat seeing locals go about their evening activities. A great way to experience the city evening.

 Verified Great night out!
JB from start to finish was fantastic. We would highly recommend this food tour. The different areas that we were taken, the food that we got to sample and to places that we wouldn't have normally eaten at, everything was delicious. One of the many highlights for us was being able to sample grasshoppers and crickets, get on board, they would be great with a beer.

 Verified Great art tour!
We did the art tour.It was great! I had a problem with the original time & they very kindly changed our pick up to accommodate us. Our guide, JB, was very knowledgeable. Loved all the background history he gave us. He was very enthusiastic about all the culture. Saw street art that we wouldn’t have seen on our own. We also went to a few galleries which had great art. Ended with a nice stop at a garden restaurant. We had a fantastic time & really enjoyed our time.

We loved our afternoon noodle and street art tour with Jackson. It is fantastic to support local family run businesses and NGOs and seeing a different side to life in Phnom Penh. Jackson was passionate, friendly, engaging and informative! Highly recommend booking this tour.

 Verified Authentic & Adventurous
We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Urban Forage. From start to finish, everything was seamless, thoughtfully organised, and genuinely memorable. We went on a guided street food tour in Phnom Penh and a progressive degustation dinner in Siem Reap. What stood out most was how they took us to places we never would have found or felt confident trying on our own. Every stop felt authentic and carefully chosen, showcasing an incredible range of flavours and local experiences. The guides and tuk tuk drivers were friendly, knowledgeable, and created a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere throughout. Urban Forage treated us like VIPs, and the tours were way beyond our expectations. It was such a great way to experience the local food scene in a meaningful way. Highly recommend this to anyone wanting something a bit different and truly special!
