An Afternoon of Contemporary Art in Phnom Penh by Tuk Tuk
Description
We’ll forage through the streets of Phnom Penh in search of the Kingdom’s finest urban and contemporary art on a curated tour. There’s been a prominent art scene developing in the Kingdom for the past decade, part of the country’s cultural renaissance. We’ll visit over 40 different murals around the city, as well as our favourite contemporary gallery and Cambodia's biggest open air gallery. We will finish the tour in our favourite garden speakeasy to see their current photo exhibit and enjoy a cocktail or mocktail and canapés.

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.
Thank you so much for your amazing review - we are so happy you had a great time with JB! Loads of love, Team Urban Forage Foos & Art Tours
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.

Wonderful look at Phnom Penh’s art and culture taking in both the out of the way jewels as well as the city’s upscale treasures. Jackson was delightful, knowledgeable and communicated beautifully!

Amazing tour with Jackson, so many different types of art and places we had never known without him. He was very well informed about the artists and the places we visited varying from streetart to galleries. And it was really interesting talking to him about daily cambodian life. The end at the Restaurant ‚wild‘ was a wonderful, shady and calm place with delicous Cocktails and food . We can highly recommand the tour with his driver too

This was such a fantastic tour! Both my mother and I loved it! We learned a lot about the local culture and arts scene and the murals/graffiti was terrific! I highly recommend this tour.
Thank you so much for your review - your kind words are so appreciated by all of us here! Loads of love, Team Urban Forage Food and Art Tours
A wonderful tour through Phnom Penh with great graffiti art and interesting background information about the artworks and artists. Ducky and Monica were a wonderful team full of warmth and competence. The cocktail and the spring and summer rolls in a beautiful garden were a great finale. We will definitely recommend you and we'll see you next time!
My friend and I had such a great time on the fine dining and art lunchtime experience with Shauna. She has an extensive knowledge of the city and is clearly deeply involved in its arts scene. Lunch was also excellent, and I think the value of the tour overall is absolutely worth the cost.
Thanks so much for your fab review, we really appreciate it!
