行程
The tour starts at the train station of Alba or in your hotel (if located nearby). Within a 20 minutes drive we will be in the heart of production of Barolo wine.
Let our guide take you on the most panoramic wine routes winding through the area of production of the famous Barolo wine, spread across eleven municipalities, where Nebbiolo grapes are cultivated. Take advantage of stunning photo opportunities over the Langhe hills which are part of the 50th UNESCO World Heritage site of Italy, because of the historical value of a unique patchwork landscape, dotted with medieval towers, castles and quaint villages. Get familiar with elements and facts of the region otherwise silent to a hurried glance.
Continue to an off-the-beaten-track boutique winery – where quality and family traditions are valued – and step inside the cellar to taste four premium wines including two different types of Barolo.
Truffle hunting in the woods which last about 1-1.5 hour

5Truffle Hunting
Our Truffle Hunting was amazing! It was very successful due to our guides knowledge and her very enthusiastic dog named Buddy! The area was beautiful and our snacks at the end where exceptional! Would highly recommend!
5Great day - white truffle bonus!
Excellent guide and truffle hunter. Very knowledgeable and shared a lot of information about the region and truffle hunting. Medium size winery was also very nice.
5Exciting experience!
The lake Como trip was fantastic. We saw 3 regions of Italy; all with their unique landscapes, food and history. The truffle hunt and tour was so much fun. The truffle hunter was entertaining and informative. It was exciting to watch the teamwork between the hunter and dog. Great experience.
5Exactly what we were looking for!
This was definitely our favorite activity in Piedmont. Fay, our guide, was awesome. Super knowledgeable, taught us all about the wine, the truffles and the region, and overall just had a great vibe that made for a really pleasant day. The Truffle dog, Turbo, was a ridiculously good boy. And if your like hiking/being outside, its just a great way to spend an hour hiking around and learning about the truffles, the flora and the culture. Also, typically the truffles are typically founds in shaded valleys, so its a good way to be outside on a hot Piedmont day. If you can, go black truffle season... they're more easily found than the rarer white truffles (Turbo found 5! truffles in an hour), and its fun experience to see the dog go crazy excited when he picks up the scent. The Barolo Winery felt very small and botique. We liked it a lot better than some of the larger wineries we went to. The tour of the wine cave was just more casual but also more informative, and the tasting just had an awesome family feel where our guide was like "you guys look like you'd like some cheese" and brought out some of the best Parmesan we've had. All in all in we wanted a tour that felt like a window into Piedmont and it was exactly that. Fay was great, the dog was great, and the wine was great. Highly recommend.
5Truffle hunt in Alba
Excellent organization of Truffle hunt in Alba - all in time and communication in advance. Sure, you should adjust your expectations of the event - not all cases ands with real truffle you may find. It depends on the place and the dog. We were lucky - the dog got 3 black truffles! Its just more fun as we were going there without high expecatitions, its more getting experience and knowledge about the process.

About Langhe-Roero and Monferrato
The Langhe, Roero and Monferrato are the vine-covered hills of southern Piedmont, home to Barolo and Barbaresco wines, hilltop villages and white truffles.
These three areas of southern Piedmont form a landscape of rolling hills, vineyards and castle-topped villages, inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2014. The Langhe, around Alba, is the home of Barolo and Barbaresco, red wines made from the nebbiolo grape. The Roero lies across the Tanaro river, and Monferrato, further east, reaches Asti and the Barbera and Moscato vineyards.
