Delightful & Delicious

Maureen_C, Oct 2024

Even in the rain the truffle hunt was delightful. The guides were knowledgeable and pup Dodo was as skilled as he was adorable. Bring your appetite! The lunch with wine pairings did not disappoint. Everything was delicious and you felt like you were being served by family.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you so much for this lovely review! We're glad the rain didn't stop the fun — Dodo will be thrilled to hear the compliments! It warms our hearts that you felt like family at the table. We hope to welcome you back soon! 🍄🐾

Absolutely great experience! Loved seeing a truffle hunting dog in action, and the wine and food pairing was delicious! Highly recommend for a beautiful day in Umbria!

A truly amazing day!

We had an absolutely fantastic day! The Tili’s treated us like part of their family. Dado the truffle hunting dog made the day extra special. We never had so many truffles in our lives. The food and wine were perfection and the views stunning!

Everything was perfect!...

Alles in allem ein Erlebnis!!!

Die Gastfreundschaft von Laura und ihrer Mutter Maria! Zudem hat uns Laura sehr viel über die Trüffelsuche gelehrt und Dodo, ihr süßer Hund, hat uns mit seiner feinen Nase viele frische Trüffel beschert.
