A truly unforgettable truffle hunting experience — worth every penny! 🌿🍄🐾 - This is an absolute must-do for anyone who loves dogs, nature, and authentic Italian hospitality! 🌟 Thank you so much, Laura and Flavia, for the warm and personal hospitality. We had such a wonderful time searching for truffles together with the amazing Maya and the wise Trilly in your beautiful forest. Flavia’s expert guidance and explanations made the hunt even more fascinating, giving us a deeper appreciation for the skill and passion behind truffle hunting. You were without a doubt the highlight of our trip to Italy! Even sweet Ludo, who didn’t join the hunt, made our experience extra special by keeping us company during the meal with her warmth, charm, and unique personality 💖🐶. The meal that followed was not only delicious but also presented in such an inspiring way. Every detail thoughtfully prepared. Beyond the experience itself, you made us feel like friends. We truly enjoyed talking with you and getting to know you, and we sincerely hope our paths cross again someday. Meeting you was one of the most memorable moments of our Italian journey. Highly recommended! 💫

Truffle hunting - Our truffle-hunting experience with Flavia and her dog Maya & Trilli was one of the most enjoyable parts of our entire trip to Italy. It was fascinating to watch Maya and Trilli in action, and Flavia was incredibly knowledgeable, explaining everything we wanted to know about truffles with patience and enthusiasm. Finding truffles was exciting and made the experience even more memorable. After the hunt, we returned to their home, where Flavia mother *forget mama name 🙈* an incredible chef, prepared truffle dinner paired with local wines. Every dish was delicious, showcasing truffles in a variety of ways. Their hospitality and passion for food and wine were evident, and we thoroughly enjoyed both the meal and the conversation. This was a great experience, and we’d recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic, hands-on introduction to truffle hunting and Italian cuisine. A unique and worthwhile experience!

Truffles! - We stayed at the B&B, had a great breakfast al fresco, then went on the truffle hunt. When we returned we had an excellent lunch waiting for us with home made pasta that we shaved the truffles on from our hunt. The dogs were super cute and the hosts were even better. Highly recommend this as an experience for your vacation in Italy. It was a beautiful nature experience combined with hiking with adorable, hard working dogs. And the hospitality was 10/10. Can’t wait to go back.

The truffle hunt lasted for almost 2 hours through the forest 🌳 and grounds we found 10 truffles some very large ones! And was taught all about them and how to spot a fake!!! Some nice produce to buy and take away From the experience, they catered for my gluten and dairy free diet which was a bonus 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 5* experience, I’m sure we will return.

Highlight of our trip, a true hidden gem - WOW WOW WOW. What an amazing experience, truly a highlight of our Italy Trip. The drive can be a little challenging for inexperienced drivers but the tour does offer pickup service if needed. Flavia is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about truffles. We learned so much during this tour. Laura is an excellent cook and lovely hostess, my only regret is not coming booking her restaurant for another meal with her. We also had an awesome time meeting Maya and Trilli, the truffle hunting dogs. Please go out of your way to attend this tour, you will not regret it.

An unforgettable truffle hunting adventure with Flavia and her two dogs Maya and Trilli - What an awesome day! Truffle hunting with Flavia and her two awesome dogs was an experience that not only allowed us to experience the art of truffle hunting but also gave us insight into the passion she and her family have for the joy they bring their guests.

Unparalleled experience! - The morning with Flavia and Laura was a truly unforgettable experience! Our teenage sons (14+16 years) were also delighted! Already the welcome by Flavia, Laura and the bitches was so warm and uncomplicated that we felt super comfortable from the first moment. For us it was very convenient that Flavia and her mother could explain us and everything in German. The truffle hunt in dreamlike nature was really exciting&fun! The dogs were just great! Flavia's passion and love for the matter of truffles can be felt. None of our questions remained unanswered! And when we came back hungry from the woods, a lovingly laid table full of delicacies with truffles that Laura prepared for us: homemade bread, homemade pasta... a dream! But the most beautiful was the incomparable feel-good atmosphere with this friendly, warm family! Thank you for giving us insights into your life and for teaching us so much about truffles! 100% recommendation!!

A dive into nature and the beauty of simplicity - My partner and I were warmly welcomed by Laura, Flavia and their beautiful dogs Maya, Tinker Bell and Ludovica; they allowed us to experience their reality and breathe nature at 360 °. The truffle hunting tour with Flavia was exciting; you get the respect for nature and the well-being of their big dogs, with whom they have a unique bond. Maya and Tinker Bell will amaze you with intelligence and resourcefulness in research! At the end of the experience you will be welcomed by a wonderful tasting prepared by Laura, all based on local products and truffles; they will share anecdotes of their activity and you will share real time of conviviality. Thanking you for the wonderful experience, we hope to be back soon to greet you! A hug, Isabella and Michelangelo
