    Thanks for a greta evening!

    I've thoroughly enjoyed Lina's food tour! She tookus to several restaurants where we were served delicious food. She was kind, happy, informative, and answered all our questions. Afterwards she took us to a bar where we had a lovely drink and lots of fun. Thanks for a great evening!

    Great food tour

    Lina is an amazing person with a lot of knowledge about the history and food of Phnom Penh. She knows all the best spots in town and has great sense of humor. I would definitely recommend Lina and her tour if you want to try the traditional Cambodian cuisine!

    Food tour - highly recommend

    Took the food tour with Lina with four different venues and four different means. Your choice is whatever your sense of adventure will take your tastebuds. I stretched as far as the frogs legs but fried spider could be an option for the more adventurous - no takers, seriously the food was delicious and you simply wouldn’t find the venues yourself,

    Authentic Walking Food Tour with Local Guide: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phnom Penh.

    How much does Authentic Walking Food Tour with Local Guide cost?

    +

    Prices start at $39 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Phnom Penh usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Authentic Walking Food Tour with Local Guide take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Phnom Penh is not rushed.

    Is Authentic Walking Food Tour with Local Guide worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Phnom Penh, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Authentic Walking Food Tour with Local Guide?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Authentic Walking Food Tour with Local Guide suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Authentic Walking Food Tour with Local Guide?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Phnom Penh can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Phnom Penh and add a light layer if any part of the 2.6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Authentic Walking Food Tour with Local Guide start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Phnom Penh within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Phnom Penh?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Phnom Penh experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half Day Tuol Sleng S21 and Choeung Ek Killing Field Tour, The Killing Field and Toul Sleng Genocide Museum (S21) Tour, Killing field and Toul Sleng genocide museum Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Phnom Penh?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Phnom Penh?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
