Highly recommend Truffle Hunting in Tuscany! - It was an amazing experience. The drive to the farm was incredible, and meeting Lucca and Ronnie, the black retriever, was the best. While there was no guarantee that we would find truffles, we ended up finding five good-sized truffles. The lunch of truffle ravioli and truffle filet was out of this world. You can't beat the views! I highly recommend it.

Great Truffle Hunt - The Truffle Hunt was excellent. Our guide was great and so was the truffle hunter Matteo and his dog Tido. We learned a lot about the process and found many truffles! The location was really scenic and the lunch that included truffle ravioli, a filet with truffle sauce, a great aged chianti from the winery on the farm, and excellent local biscotti like cookies with vin santo for dessert. This was our 13 year old daughter's favorite activity after 12 days of seeing sites in Rome, Venice, Florence and other towns. Would highly recommend this for anyone who likes truffles and and is interested in where they come from.

Lovely memorable experience - We had a really lovely trifle hunting experience with Sylvia, Matteo, Samuel, and Tito. We were able to touch and smell about 5-6 black truffles after an hour long hunt in the woods. We had an enormous Tuscan lunch afterwards featuring truffles in a beautiful setting. Strongly recommend.

Amazing experience! - We had an amazing time at the truffle hunt. The team explained every stage of the tour very well. The walk through the private truffle reserve was interesting, we learned a lot about truffles generally and how they are found. It was a treat to watch how the truffle hunter and his dog carry out their respective tasks in order to find this amazing natural treasure. Highly recommend!
