It is not surprising that Piedmont has Italy’s highest concentration of Michelin-starred restaurants, and truffles are part of the reason. From mid September to early January, hunt truffles in the UNESCO-protected Langhe woods of Alba with a professional truffle hunter and his trusty dog (not pig, as in France!) An English-speaking guide will accompany you so that nothing is lost in translation in your quest for the magical tartufo bianco, the white ‘king of truffles’, more delicate-flavored than pungent black truffles. Discover why the world’s best restaurants pay top dollar for this rare fungus! Put a scrumptious end to your day with truffle tastings.
*NOTE: This tour is only available in truffle season, mid September to early January. Lunch is not included
