Overview

The mountainous region of Molise is one of Italy's lesser-visited regions, and authentic truffle hunting experiences here are harder to find than in better-known Umbria or Piedmont. Head to Di Iorio Tartufi in Busso, and pair a forest hunt with trained dogs and a third-generation truffle hunter alongside a tasting of truffle-based dishes back at the estate, served with bruschetta, caciocavallo cheese, and Molise wines.

Hunt for truffles the authentic way—with a dog sniffing them out
Enjoy the rare opportunity to sample fresh truffles in the area they're found
Learn tips and tricks passed down through three generations of hunters
See a new side to Italy as you explore its rural landscapes
