OVERVIEW

What you'll see.

Embark on an unforgettable private truffle hunt in the heart of Tuscany, followed by an exquisite wine tasting experience, all tailored to offer you a true taste of Italian luxury.

Into the woods with the truffle hunters

Embark on an exclusive adventure with a private truffle hunt and wine tasting in the heart of Tuscany. Truffle hunting here is a craft passed down through generations, a quiet partnership between hunter and trained dog, walking woodland trails in search of one of the world's most prized ingredients. Guided by an expert truffle hunter and their dog, you'll explore scenic woodlands, watch the search unfold in real time, and learn the history, techniques and significance of truffle hunting in Tuscan culture.

A vineyard afternoon

After the hunt, the day mellows into a wine tasting at a local vineyard, where exceptional Tuscan wines are paired with truffle-infused delicacies. Discover the rich flavours of regional icons such as Chianti Classico and Brunello di Montalcino, two of Italy's most celebrated wines, while gaining insight into the winemaking process from the people who live it.

Lunch, the Tuscan way

Between the woods and the wine comes a typical Tuscan lunch: freshly made pasta and a spread of local seasonal products, prepared the way Tuscan kitchens have always done it. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are available on request, just let us know your preferences in advance.

Good to know

This 6-hour private experience includes lunch, the wine tasting, a licensed guide, and private transportation in an air-conditioned vehicle with your own driver, hotel pickup and drop-off included, door to door. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes suited to countryside walking. Truffle hunting is seasonal, at its best from September to December, and the itinerary can be customized with different wine selections or additional stops. A day for food lovers, couples and families who want the Tuscany of woodlands, cellars and long lunches, not the tour-bus version. Every season in the woods is different, which is half the charm, no two hunts ever find quite the same treasure.
