I would highly recommend this tour. Jackson, our guide, was fantastic. Had so much good food. Went to places I would have never found on my own. The tuk tuk was a great way to see the city

Jackson was the absolute best host to an array of Cambodian foods! He described the cultural significance of each dish and answered all our questions. Highly highly recomend!

    I can’t recommend this tour more strongly. I’ve traveled all over the world, and this experience ranks as one of my all-time favorites. Jackson and Cheetah offered a wealth of local knowledge, and they kept it fun throughout. Do yourself a favor and book this one next time you’re in Phnom Penh; I promise you won’t regret it. Just make sure you arrive with an empty stomach since you definitely won’t be leaving with one!

    Must do for Phnom Penh

    Laurence_D, Apr 2026
    Absolutely excellent food tour! We went to a massive variety of places, most of which I never would have been able to find going by myself. The guide, Panha, was excellent, providing a lot of interesting detail on Cambodian food culture and customs, and was very friendly and interesting to talk to in general! Would highly recommend this if you’re looking to get a real, authentic sense of how locals eat.

    Our guide Jackson was lots of fun and we had a few jokes in Australian slang. He was attentive and the tuk tuk drivers were lovely and made sure we were always well hydrated and comfortable. Would highly recommend this tour if you want to try some safe traditional street food. Thanks so much guys!

    My Top Recommendation in Phnom Penh for Foodies

    Laney_T, Feb 2026
    I booked this tour last minute and am so glad I did. It was one of the highlights in Phnom Penh for me. Jackson messaged before the tour began to introduce himself and inform me of pickup time. At pickup time, Jackson was there with cold beer and water readily available. We ate and drank so much and it was easy as the tuk tuks were there to take us from place to place. We ate at a lot of places that I wouldn’t have known about or would probably have avoided as I don’t know how safe they are. Everything was delicious and fresh and best of all, nobody got sick after. We ended the night at a garden cocktail bar. Amazing experience.

    Jackson was a lively likeable and energetic guide who spent over 4 hours taking us to some great food spots that we would have never found on our own. If you travel to Phnom Penh, you don’t want to miss this tour since it will give you insights into the Cambodian culture that you will hear, see, and taste only on a tour like this one.

    Unforgettable Food Tasting Tour by Tuk Tuk in Phnom Penh

    Rita_A, Dec 2025
    This food tasting tour by tuk tuk was hands down one of the highlights of my time in Phnom Penh. Exploring the city at night, moving between stops in a tuk tuk, gave the whole experience such a fun, authentic, and immersive vibe. My guide, JB, was absolutely fantastic. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about Cambodian food and culture. JB made me feel completely at ease, explained every dish in detail, and shared stories and local insights that you simply wouldn’t get on your own. The food was outstanding — a perfect mix of local street food and hidden gems that I would never have found without this tour. Everything felt carefully chosen, from the flavours to the locations, and there was more than enough food to leave happily full. What really made the tour special was the balance between great food, cultural learning, and relaxed fun. It never felt rushed, and JB was always attentive, checking in and adapting the pace to the group. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Phnom Penh, whether it’s your first time or not. If you’re lucky enough to get JB as your guide, you’re in for an amazing evening. Truly a must-do experience! 🌟

    Excellent street food tour with JB (guide) which opened up food to us in our future travels that we would not have eaten otherwise. The pancake with pork wrapped in lettuce, and sprinkle of satay sauce was special.

    Ultimate food tour for foodies!

    Martina_S, Nov 2025
    This food tour was fabulous from start to finish. Our tour guide Visal as well as the tuk tuk drivers were so friendly and helpful. We were given snacks and beer from the moment we were collected from the hotel. There were many food stops with lots of interesting information about local food and customs. It was a very rainy evening on the tour but this didn’t stop us having a great time and we were well looked after. There is no shortage of food, so arrive hungry!

    The best foodie experience in Cambodia

    Therese_R, Nov 2025
    Driving through Phenom Penh at night in a tuk tuk was a blast and then there was the food! We ate everything , we learned so much from our wonderful , impressive guide Panha, he made such an effort and we were lucky to have a lovely group of 7 people who were all fun and adventurous eaters . I cant recommend this tour enough we ate street food and in resturants. We sampled things that we may have missed had we not been on this tour . I would give more than 5 stars if i could . A great shared experience and one we will never forget . Thank you Panha and our lovely driver for everything

    We got Panha and he was so much fun. Young and knowledgeable, answering all of our questions - not only just about food, but also culture and traditions in Cambodia. All of the locals knew him and love him. The food tour itself was great - comprehensive, accommodating, and with great options! The pace was perfect. Loved that we got to visit the Russian Market, and to end it with a cocktail at the end. It was also really nice that the driver and Panha were able to eat alongside us for the main meal. The company is really reputable - called Urban Forage and has been around for many years. Do it right, and book the best!

    Must do experience for anyone visiting the city.

    Max_P, Aug 2025
    A must do for anyone visiting the city. Our guide took us to some local spots we wouldn’t have thought to go to. Ducky had been doing the tour for years and all the spots knew her well. Catered for myself (meat eater) and partner (pescatarian) without issue. The tour didn’t just show us great local places to eat but also thought us gestures like “cheers”. Driver was very friendly and on hand to pick us up and sat down for the final meal with us.

    Thank you for your lovely review - I really appreciate it so much. It was so lovely to pass the evening with you guys! Loads of love, Ducky
