Itinerary
Private Truffle Hunting Experience Your licensed driver-guide and trekking guide will pick you up from your hotel or apartment in Florence and take you through the scenic Tuscan countryside—past vineyards, olive groves, and rolling hills—to meet your professional truffle hunter. Before entering the woods, you’ll receive a brief introduction to the basic rules of truffle hunting and learn how truffle dogs are trained and how they work in the field. Then the hunt begins. Walk through the forest and actively take part in the search alongside the hunter and the dog, discovering techniques and insights from this ancient Tuscan tradition.
Lunch & Wine Tasting in a Charming Cellar After the hunt, we’ll head to a welcoming Tuscan cellar or winery for a relaxed lunch. You’ll enjoy a first course featuring fresh truffle pasta, paired with a selection of local Tuscan products. During lunch, take part in a guided tasting of three Tuscan wines, with a simple introduction to their main characteristics and styles.

About Florence
Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, gathers masterpieces of art and architecture into a compact city of stone streets beside the Arno.
The Duomo, with Brunelleschi's great red-brick dome, Giotto's bell tower and the Baptistery's gilded doors, marks the centre of town. A few streets away, Piazza della Signoria and the Palazzo Vecchio face a loggia full of sculpture, and the Uffizi Gallery holds Botticelli, Leonardo and Raphael. Michelangelo's David stands in the Galleria dell'Accademia.
Top-ranked sights in Florence: Piazza della Signoria, Uffizi Galleries (Gallerie degli Uffizi), Florence Duomo (Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore).
