A great and memorable truffle hunting experience! - This was a truly amazing experience! The hills surrounding Assisi are absolutely beautiful. Barto the dog was a pro at finding truffles and it was very interesting to watch the dog and his master, the truffle hunter, work the woods in search of this edible treasure. Both the truffle hunter and the lady guide were very warm, friendly, informative, and really made this a fun and memorable adventure for all who attended the hunt. This has definitely been one of the highlights of my trip to Italy this year, and I highly recommend it!

Fascinating and fun! - This was a wonderful experience with the trainer helping us learn about truffles and the dog training. All 8 of us, 12-80 years old were fascinated. Then we had a gourmet truffle lunch with wine that was delicious. Best trip of our two weeks in Italy!

Truffle hunting first time experience - We had a wonderful experience. Gemma and Her partner And Barto Were amazing. We learned a great deal from very skilled truffle hunters. We saw many black Summer truffles. We enjoyed the couple from Lithuania. We explored beautiful countryside and had an amazing hike. Thank you very much!

Truffle hunting - A beautiful walk in nature around Assisi. Maurizio with the trusty Barto together with .. (I do not remember the name, but a very kind and caring girl) accompanied us in search of truffles. They gave interesting news about truffles and their lives. We highly recommend it!

Barto guarantee of fun and truffles - Fantastic experience in the company of Barto and his master. The truffle hunter explained in detail how the search for truffles takes place throughout the year and what are the rules to respect. Barto, then, was great finding lots of truffles! We were involved in the activity helping us Barto to dig and, at the end of the tour, we were able to bring home some of the truffles found. We will probably be back for the white season :)

Amazing experience! - Gemma takes you into the woods with her boyfriend and the dog Barto in search of truffles. Barty starts the search and after he starts digging you can finish it! Amazing experience!! Small group, there were 5 of us. Well worth doing!

Great to have experienced the delight in finding truffles but tour could be more professionally run. - The actual truffle hunting experience was good. Gemma was lovely to deal with and Barto was an expert! I didn’t think the experience was value for money though. Other truffle hunting experiences offer tastings for the same costs. We also had to use our own car to drive to the forest because there wasn’t enough space in the company’s vehicles.

Bad Customer Service - Terrible customer service. They cancelled our trip with less than 24 hour notice and will not answer any calls/texts/emails with any explanation. Have tried to contact them for help and cannot get a response at all. Very frustrating after booking months in advance and paying upfront for the experience. Now having to try and get a refund. Disappointing
