Truffle Hunting in Chianti, pasta class and lunch

We had the most amazing day, taking in a truly Tuscan experience. This is going to be something my wife and I talk about for years to come. We started with the truffle hunting, which was great in the small group setting. Then we moved to the pasta making, and finally a multi-course lunch overlooking picturesque Tuscan farms. You have the option to then buy some of the homemade products, which we absolutely recommend. Getting to the farm can be a little difficult, with $100 taxis in each direction, but it’s a small price to pay for the memories.

We had a fantastic time. The lunch was superb and when a rainstorm came in, the poor gents shared their home with soaking tourists. We will never forget it and highly highly recommend you sign up.

This was exceptional! From the experience to the hospitality to the food. I would recommend to anyone who loves truffles

Wonderful family setting, with hosts welcoming guests to their home ! Great experience of the Tuscan farm lifestyle.

Me, my wife and young daughter had a fantastic day, we loved meeting the host and his animals before going into the woods to hunt for truffles. Pasta making was relaxed and the host explained the process very well so even my 9 your old daughter had no problem making her own pasta. The host provided a delicious selection of bread, meet and cheese before enjoying our handmade pasta with whilst tasting his red and white wines, highly recommend this experience.

Wonderful unique experience. 100% recommend.

Amazing experience. Authentic traditional farm with warm greetings from Nicola and his family. Fabulous truffle hunt through the Forrest, truffles shaved that the dog found with us, onto our home made tagliatelle. Incredible lunch and handmade wines. Must do experience

So much fun! Gian Carlo and tabo were very knowledgeable and appreciated their environmentalist approach to truffle hunting. Then the pasta making class with Niccolo was so much fun! Definitely want to buy my own pasta maker now. My parents were worried the truffle hunting might be too outdoorsy for them, but it wasn't nearly as intense as they had thought, plus we found a good amount!

Simply unmissable. This is genuinely one of the top five experiences I’ve had in Italy in over 30 years of visiting. It’s a true family-run farm offering an authentic truffle hunt and hands‑on cooking experience — nothing staged, nothing commercial, just real hospitality. You’re welcomed straight into the family’s cottage, where the outdoor verandah and cooking area overlook a beautiful valley. The setting is simple, rustic, and absolutely charming. Niccolò is a fantastic host. He teaches the art of making fresh pasta with patience and humour, then treats you to an exceptional antipasto spread paired with the family's own wine. Finally, you enjoy the pasta you’ve made, generously topped with fresh truffle — unforgettable. The truffle dog, Tabbu (a Lagotto), is friendly, energetic, and clearly loves his work. His owner, a licensed truffle hunter, takes the time to explain everything about truffles, the forest, and how these remarkable dogs are trained. Take the time to enjoy this relaxed, authentic, and deeply memorable experience. It’s the kind of encounter that stays with you long after you’ve left Italy.

My husband and I absolutely loved our time with Fabrizio and his family! The short hike in the woods for truffle hunting was peaceful and beautiful. It was so fun watching and learning from the truffle hunter and his sweet and energetic dog! We found plenty of truffles for the delicious lunch we had later in the day. After the hunt, we came back to the farm and made pasta as a group, and then gathered for a lunch of one of the most impressive charcuterie boards I have ever seen, before eating the pasta we just made. All overlooking the idyllic Tuscan countryside. Truly an incredible experience that I highly recommend.
