半プライベートトリュフ狩り＆ランチ@ワイナリー、サン・ジミニャーノ

This was the best part of my trip to Tuscany. Lorenzo was a terrific guide, so knowledgeable and flexible. He even stopped in the middle of a vineyard where they were picking the grapes so I could take a picture and taste a grape! The truffle hunting experience was amazing and fruitful. The dog was amazing and talented! The family who took us and hosted us were sweet and friendly and welcoming. I thoroughly enjoyed this experience.

Food we had here was our best meal of the whole trip. Wmthe dog we had was riccolo and was super fun.

A great experience. Really good way to see the country side and experience the culture of the area. People could not have been nicer.

The truffle hunt and day on Tuscany was the highlight of our trip around Italy. Daniel, our guide, was knowledgeable, welcoming and took great care of us. The. Truffle hunt was so much fun with Francesco and his hunting dog, Sallie. Lunch was phenomenal and the stop in San Giangnomo was simply breathtaking. A dream for me, my husband and our 8 year old son.

Our truffle hunting experience in the Tuscan countryside was easily the highlights of our entire trip. From start to finish, everything felt warm, personal, and unforgettable. First, we have to rave about our driver, Christian. He went so far above and beyond anything we expected. Not only did he make the ride comfortable and fun, but he surprised us with a stop at a stunning Florence overlook, gave us great local insights along the way, and even drove us directly back to our hotel after the tour — no extra transfers, no stress. On top of all that, he helped my mom explore clues about her Italian ancestry, which meant the world to us. He’s the kind of person who turns a great experience into a truly special one. The truffle hunt itself was incredible. We were lucky enough to go out with Lillo, a 15-month-old truffle dog just learning the ropes (and needed persuasion with pollo(chicken)) — and watching him work was pure joy. Guided by Luigi and his son Luca, we learned so much about the tradition, the land, and what makes truffle hunting such a cherished part of Tuscan culture. They were patient, passionate, and clearly loved what they do. After the hunt, we were treated to a home-cooked meal that I am still thinking about. Simone and Luca (the brothers) prepared everything with so much care. The standout dish? The squash lasagna — something I never knew I needed in my life until the very first bite. Truly unforgettable. If you want an authentic, heartfelt, and delicious Tuscan experience, this is it. From Christian to Lillo to the entire family, every moment was thoughtful, memorable, and absolutely worth it. Highly, highly recommend.

Where do I begin? What a PHENOMENAL EXPERIENCE. Christian our driver, Franchesco the Truffle Hunter and Sally the best dog - made this experience beyond amazing. The hunt was thrilling, we found white truffles! The lunch was extraordinary ( the view and the service) and oh my gosh the shopping at San Gimignano was an experience in itself. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Great experience truffle. Our guide was great and the experience with the Tuscan Truffle Hunter was fantastic! I would recommend it to everyone.

This was hands down, the best experience we had during our trip in Italy. We met with our guide Lorenzo, in Florence and took a well air-conditioned van for about a 1 hr drive to the vineyards of chianti region. Lorenzo was so passionate about the region and was very knowledgeable about the local food, plants and culture and we immediately were grateful that he was so welcoming and helpful! Lorenzo made sure the entire trip to accommodate us and made sure the trip was stress free and fun! After arriving at a stunning setting for our truffle hunting, we were greeted by a local family with many decades of experience truffle hunting with their dogs. We spent about 1 hr and 10 minutes hunting for truffles and our truffle hunting puppy Lilo found so many black summer truffles! Afterwards, the family prepared an incredible lunch for us using vegetables fresh from their garden, and the truffles that we hunted. Salad, pasta, steak, dessert, wine grown at their vineyard and coffee to finish off the meal. This was the best meal we had even better than a 2 star michelin restaurant we visited during our trip because it was truly authentic with absolutely fresh ingredients, not a commercialized production of food. Afterwards we visited San Gimignano on our way back and it was very charming and picturesque. We enjoyed some really awesome shops there as well. I’ll never forget this experience and if you have time to spend a day looking for an authentic experience, this is it!!!

This was my favorite day of our trip to Italy. The truffle hunting was exciting and successful, the dog was hilarious, and Luigi, Luca, Simone and family were welcoming and informative and great hosts and chefs. Our guide and driver Bijan was excellent. The truffle lunch overlooking olive orchards was spectacular. No complaints, highly recommended!

Jojo was punctual and greeted us w a smile at our apt in Florence. Our drive to San gimignano was beautiful and JoJo provided history along the way. The truffle hunt w the Tuscan truffle hunter and his dog Selly was an adventure. Selly found 10 truffles that we took to our lunch spot. It had spectacular views and our lunch was delicious especially w our freshly shaved truffles and fresh organic ingredients. Yummy wine and limoncello accompanied lunch then city tour w world famous gelato. Amazing day with excellent customer service. Xoxoxo fun family exclusion.
