A Forever Remembered Experience - Outstanding! My wife and I had a wonderful time with Michael and his well-behaved, highly intelligent, hard-working, truffle dog. We learned more about truffles, than we knew there is to know. We met in a quaint little village, from which we set off on our truffle hunt. It was fascinating to see the dog hunt down and dig up our truffles. Afterward, we headed to a perfectly lovely little country inn, where we had the Italian meal of a lifetime that included the truffles we just gathered. This is a true off the beaten path, not to be missed and forever remembered experience.

An unforgettable day trip - This tour was so special, and made our trip to Italy unforgettable. Our guide is actually a truffle dog trainer, so we were really working with experts! He picked us up in Verona, drove us into the mountains, and we hiked around and got to see his dog find lots of truffles. He answered all of our questions, and was super knowledgeable. We learned about truffle hunting around the world, the truffle industry, and about our region of Italy. Our hunt showcased gorgeous scenery of the Italian countryside, and we walked through vineyards in the mountains. Unforgettable views. After our hunt, he took us to a small restaurant where we got to eat food topped with one of the truffles we hunted. So special. We had pasta, vegetables, eggs, slow roasted pork, and local fish all topped with copious amounts of shaved truffle, and we got Prosecco with lunch too. It was the perfect day, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to enhance their trip to Italy.

Truffle Hunting in the Veneto Countryside - A fun and unique experience in the Italian countryside with an expert truffle hunter and his dog. Watching this Lagotto Romagnolo at work was amazing - we learned so much about truffles from our guide and then had the opportunity to enjoy black truffle with our lunch at a local restaurant. It was a lot of fun.
