We had a wonderful time in the woods with Whiskey and Oogle! They are adorable dogs. The guides were so knowledgeable about everything and explained everything the dogs were doing. We found lots of truffles!

Fantastic

The truffle hunting experience was exceptional! Our guides were very knowledgeable and the dogs found tons of truffles. There was a beautiful restaurant at the end of the tour that we ate at with beautiful views and excellent food. Would highly recommend!

WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY!!! Buyer beware

OLEG_B, Oct 2024

The truffle hunter and translator were very sweet. I was shocked to find out that there was no tasting or cooking class offered after. We chose this adventure based on all of the past reviews which all mentioned a tasting and/or cooking class with it. We basically spent $250 to walk around for one hour when the listing showed it was a two hour experience and watch the hunter collect truffles then weigh them and offer to sell them to us. All other Viator experiences have either truffles to be kept by the guests or a tasting of some. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY with this selection!!! Very disappointed. We have experienced a few Viator tours and this is the first and hopefully the last bad review shared.
