Truffeljacht in San Miniato in Toscane met proeverij





Beschrijving
De ongerepte natuur, de band met mijn lieve honden, de stilte van het bos die alleen onderbroken wordt door het gezang van de vogels. Dit alles vormt het decor voor de ontdekking van een van de oudste en meest geheime beroepen in Toscane: dat van de truffeljager. Door hun ondergrondse ligging, hun delicatesse en hun enorme economische waarde hebben truffels de mens altijd gefascineerd en spelen ze een leidende rol in de Toscaanse cultuur en keuken. Tijdens de truffeljacht volgen we paden waar truffels van nature groeien. We zullen alle geheimen van truffels onthullen, de planten die ermee in symbiose leven, en hoe je de honden traint; en als we geluk hebben, vinden we misschien zelfs een paar mooie truffels. Volwassenen en kinderen zullen het geweldig vinden om de hond te volgen en mij te helpen de truffel uit de grond te graven. Ze zullen ook veel leren over truffels en de natuur.

This truffle hunting trip was absolutely one of the best and most highly recommended experiences I had in Italy!If I could rate it, I would definitely give it 10 stars; it is a shame that 5 stars is the maximum. Leonardo was a very passionate, professional, and humorous guide who filled the entire trip with laughter and taught us a lot about truffles and local culture.The most amazing part was the truffle dog, Roy; watching him use his keen sense of smell to find truffles really made us gasp, and every discovery was incredibly exciting. This was not just a truffle hunt, but an experience full of knowledge, joy, and nature, and it is one of the most precious memories of my trip to Italy.Thank you so much to Leonardo and Roy for giving us such a perfect day; I will definitely recommend this to everyone traveling to Italy! --- This truffle hunting experience was easily one of the absolute highlights of my trip to Italy! If I could rate it, I would gladly give it 10 stars—it's just a shame that 5 stars is the highest score available. Leonardo was an outstanding guide—friendly, knowledgeable, passionate, and full of energy. He made the entire experience enjoyable while teaching us so much about truffles and the local traditions. The real star, of course, was Roy, the incredible truffle dog. Watching Roy expertly sniff out truffles in the forest was fascinating, and every discovery felt exciting. This was much more than a tour. It was a unique experience filled with nature, learning, laughter, and unforgettable memories. Thank you, Leonardo and Roy, for making this such a special day. I will recommend this experience to everyone who visits Italy! --- This truffle hunting experience was without a doubt one of the best moments of my trip to Italy! If it were possible, I would give it 10 stars, but unfortunately the maximum is 5. Leonardo is an exceptional guide: knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate. He made the whole experience fun and interesting, helping us discover so many things about truffles and local traditions. The real star, however, was Roy, a truly extraordinary little dog. Watching her find truffles with her incredible sense of smell was exciting, and every discovery filled us with enthusiasm. It wasn't just an excursion, but an authentic experience, full of emotions, nature, and unforgettable memories. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Leonardo and Roy, for this perfect day. I will definitely recommend it to anyone who comes to visit Italy!
Leonardo is amazing! His passion for truffle hunting with his dogs and his willingness to share his knowledge makes him an exceptional host. He kept us entertained and taught us at the same time. It was the fastest two hours and forty five minutes of our three week Tuscan vacation. His ability to keep three generations involved at the same time is exceptional. The BEST!
Ciao George! What can I say? I can only thank you for these wonderful words! Having guests like you is the greatest satisfaction I could ever experience! Thank you so much, and I truly hope you'll come back to visit me again! Leonardo

Ciao Brianne! I really hope I can meet you again! Thanks for everything! Leonardo
Beautiful afternoon in nature with Leonardo and Aki, a very special highlight in Tuscany. Leonardo was warm and welcoming, so enthusiastic, informative and expert. Aki is an amazingly talented dog, so friendly and skilled at his craft, and found black and white truffles! Followed by a delicious truffle tasting. If you get the chance do it, you won’t be disappointed. Grazie Mille Leonardo and Aki, buona fortuna!
Thank you so much for the beautiful review! I hope you'll come back to visit us soon! Leonardo
Best experience of the whole Italy trip. It was a once in a lifetime experience. Not many people will get to experience this in their life. We got picked up at the train station from Leonardo than went to his house to pick up the hunting dog. We then went into the Tuscany forest to hunt for truffles. We found 2 white truffles which are more rare and 1 black truffle. We learned the history and got to experience walking through the forest and the dog finding a truffle and Leonardo rigging it out. Than we went back to his house and had some truffle delights on bread. It was probably the best experience of my life. My gf, Katie and I, loved every moment of it. 10/10 recommend.
I believe that a person who does what he loves is not just work. I am sure of this when a person leaves a review like this. Thank you very much! Leonardo
We had the best time with Leonardo. He clearly loves his dogs and is passionate about truffles. You won’t be disappointed.
Thanks so much for the review Charlotte! I hope to meet again! Leonardo
Leonardo and Ahi were amazing hosts! My husband and I had a tour by ourselves which was splendid. Learning about truffles and how they are harvested was very cool. Ahi was the cutest and found us 4 big summer truffles. It was a perfect morning hiking the beautiful Tuscan countryside. After the hunt Leonardo gave us a tasting of all of his truffle creations and graciously served them with wine. Unforgettable Italy experience!
What a great pleasure it was to host you! Thank you so much for the wonderful review!
We had an amazing time with Leonardo and his dog Ahi! A really smart man (full of good information) and a sweet and talented dog! He found multiple truffles and the walk in the woods was also very pleasant Definitely recommend doing this! Great memory!
Thanks so much for this wonderful review! I really hope you come to visit me again! Leonardo
