## Project Overview

Urban Forage runs award-winning food and art tours across Phnom Penh, Siem Reap,
and Battambang. The brief was clear. Present tours simply, build trust fast, and
make bookings feel effortless. The site also had to reflect real local expertise
and a strong sense of story.

We proposed a fast-loading, SEO-friendly WordPress build that showcases tours, reviews,
and destinations with confidence. If you’re looking for a [tour website design service](https://oliveandlake.com/for-all-businesses/digital-marketing/website-design/)
that converts as well as it inspires, Olive & Lake can help. [Contact us for a free consultation](https://oliveandlake.com/consultation/).

The design brief was clear:

 * Clear tour discovery across three cities in Cambodia.
 * Smooth enquiry and booking paths.
 * Evidence of trust with reviews and awards.
 * Strong on-page SEO and performance.
 * Beautifully designed website for their unique offerings.

## Design Approach

The design is calm and image-led, letting food, markets, and street scenes do the
talking. Navigation is simple: Tours, Destinations, Our Story, FAQs, and Contact.
Tour cards highlight price per person, pickup details, and a short hook so guests
grasp the value at a glance.

Tour detail pages focus on itinerary highlights and what is included, with clear
calls to action to book a tour. Review badges and awards appear near primary CTAs
to build trust. The layout is fully responsive and keeps performance tight on mobile
devices.

## Challenges & Solutions

It was important to list tours by cities providing a landing page for each location
where tours are offered. To achieve this, we structured the tours with custom taxonomies
for destinations, alloing users to easily browse and filter tours by destination.

As the client has 1000s of 5-star reviews, it was important to highlight these to
build trust and social proof. We used a plugin which pulls in both Google and TripAdvisor
reviews so the reviews are always fresh and updated.

Urban Forage has a unique offering in Cambodia, so it was important that the content
reflected this. Short and consistent copy keeps the voice warm, knowledgeable, and
local.

To further build trust, it’s important that the booking process is clear and transparent.
Booking, payment, and cancellation policies are linked from every tour page. A compact
policy summary sits near CTAs, with full details one click away. This sets expectations
and lowers support questions.

For bookings, the client was already familiar with WooCommerce, so we opted for 
a WooCommerce booking integration to select dates and times for each tour.

Finally, guests need to find Urban Forage when searching for food tours in Phnom
Penh, Siem Reap or Battambang. We optimised images, used clean URL structures, correct
schema markup and other on-page and technical SEO optimisations to strengthen discovery
and search visibility.
