The Truffle Hunt was excellent. Our guide was great and so was the truffle hunter Matteo and his dog Tido. We learned a lot about the process and found many truffles! The location was really scenic and the lunch that included truffle ravioli, a filet with truffle sauce, a great aged chianti from the winery on the farm, and excellent local biscotti like cookies with vin santo for dessert. This was our 13 year old daughter’s favorite activity after 12 days of seeing sites in Rome, Venice, Florence and other towns. Would highly recommend this for anyone who likes truffles and and is interested in where they come from.

We had a really lovely trifle hunting experience with Sylvia, Matteo, Samuel, and Tito. We were able to touch and smell about 5-6 black truffles after an hour long hunt in the woods. We had an enormous Tuscan lunch afterwards featuring truffles in a beautiful setting. Strongly recommend.
