Loved this tour. What we didn't realise though was that once we got to the town noted in the tour info, we then had to arrange transport from the station to the farm and back to stationwe had no car. this cost us extra 50euro. So overall tour quite expensive. The truffle hunters dog did not disappoint as we wandered around a small area of the property. A tour of the property and winery was also vg. Our lunch which included truffle shavings on freshest pasta and a yummy chicken dish, followed by best tiramisu together with wine from the property's own vineyard was fabulous. Would have liked another hour or so at property as we rushed to finish lunch, because our pickup had been organised by property for 2pm.
