This was definitely a highlight of our two week trip in Italy. The view was amazing, the hunting for truffles was amazing, the dogs were amazing, the hosts were amazing but the food was beyond amazing.
WOW WOW WOW. What an amazing experience, truly a highlight of our Italy Trip. The drive can be a little challenging for inexperienced drivers but the tour does offer pickup service if needed. Flavia is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about truffles. We learned so much during this tour. Laura is an excellent cook and lovely hostess, my only regret is not coming booking her restaurant for another meal with her. We also had an awesome time meeting Maya and Trilli, the truffle hunting dogs.
Please go out of your way to attend this tour, you will not regret it.
This truffle hunting experience was an absolute highlight of our trip. Flavia’s passion for truffles is infectious, and watching her expertly trained dogs in action was truly something special. We were amazed by how many truffles we found in such a short time while walking through their stunning property—an experience that felt both authentic and unforgettable.
The real surprise came afterward: the dinner. Flavia’s mother, Laura, prepared what turned out to be the best meal we’ve had in Italy. Every dish featured truffles in a way that elevated the flavors beyond anything we’ve ever tasted. I’m now convinced I’ve probably never had a true truffle until this experience.
The warmth and hospitality of this mother-daughter team made the evening feel more like a visit with friends than a tour. My son and I enjoyed every moment, from the hunt to the laughter around the dinner table. We opted for the private taxi pickup, which made transportation easy and worry-free.
This was not just an activity—it was a beautiful adventure we’ll never forget. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
This was a true highlight of our trip to Italy! We learned a lot about truffles and truffle hunting while getting to follow the dogs around the property. We found so many truffles and the dogs were absolutely incredible. I’d recommend this experience for anyone visiting the area.
