The truffle hunt starts from the beautiful rolling hills and valleys of the Tuscany area. We will follow the dogs through the truffle-rich forests and pastures at a leisurely pace as they work searching for the prized Tuscan truffles. At times it happens quickly, sometimes it takes longer, but sooner or later we’ll have enough truffles for a Tuscan hunter’s traditional lunch. The adventure then continues with a visit to a winery and finishes with a traditional Tuscan lunch with freshly hunted truffles. Family, friends and truffle hunters join us for a relaxing, fun and totally authentic lunch.
