Truffle hunt in October - We adored being taken on a truffle hunt by avid enthusiast Enrico and his trusty hound Lisa. Ambling through the woods was the perfect afternoon activity in Piedmont, crowned by finding three different truffles. Our guide and chauffeur Sander made the excursion so interesting with his wide knowledge and great language skills, and we discovered Barolo wines as well. Not cheap, but worth every penny. Thank you all.

Truffles and wine - can’t be any better! - Our guide, Marco, was very knowledgeable about the area and provided a lot of information before the hunt. Leeza (our truffle dog) and Enrico were wonderful. She worked hard and found 4 truffles. They were both energetic and enthusiastic to make sure we had a great experience. Then Marco took us to a beautiful winery where we had a personal tour and tasting. Overall it was a fantastic afternoon.
