Dear David,
Thank you so much for joining us and taking time to write a review about your truffle hunting experience at our place.
It was a pleasure to bring you along on our daily adventure where you were able to see our dogs in action, as well as try your freshly found truffles.
All our truffle delicacies and scrambled eggs with truffles are freshly prepared for our guests and paired with our family's home made Istrian wine malvazija. It's a family labour of love and that's why our visitors really like it.
Thank you for your kind words and if you ever come to Istria again, you are more than welcome to visit us!
Greetings from Višnja and the Prodan family.
What an unexpected surprise! The operation is family operated so very inviting. They provide everything that you will need to participate. The whole experience was truly magical. I could go back again if I were local. The pups were amazing. The information shared was very interesting. The cooking details were new and the food provided was wonderful. I HIGHLY recommend this trip for all ages.
