Enjoy this wine and food experience to discover Tuscany and its people
A 7-hour private truffle hunt with a professional hunter and dog, followed by a Chianti Classico winery visit, wine and olive oil tasting, and a Tuscan 3-course lunch.
You'll spend some hours walking through typical Tuscan woods, picking truffles alongside a special guide who will teach you how to find truffles with a trained dog.
What to expect

“Vittorio, Francesca and the whole staff at the winery were great! Vittorio picked us up by the train station in Florence and took us truffle hunting first, followed by a great lunch. Levante the truffle hunting dog was the star of the show getting us some white and black truffles in this off-peak season. Thank you all!”

“We did the truffle hunting experience as a group of 40 the day after our wedding. Vittorio was very helpful in making sure that we had a bus big enough for the group and gave clear instructions on where to meet him in Florence for our pickup. Our group loved learning about truffles, meeting the dogs, and exploring the woods. We even found 4 truffles that day, though Luna ate one. The lunch is absolutely delightful. Each course is paired with wine and you get to try fresh bread with all of the different truffle oils.”
