What a great day! Rafaella and our driver picked us up right from the ship and shared a lot about Croatia and the Istrian peninsula and its history. We hiked and hunted for truffles for 45 minutes. It was a little steep in parts but manageable. We then returned to enjoy a fantastic meal of all things truffle. We walked off the meal in the charming little village of Motovun where we tasted some local distilled products. Returned back to pier satiated. Great trip.
