Truffle hunting success in Assisi! Wonderful day!

Published on Nov, 2024

The truffle hunt was a fantastic way to spend the afternoon! Our guide, Gemma, was very knowledgeable about all things truffle and our great truffle hunter dog, Barto, made our hunt a success with various black truffles and a big white truffle as our catch! If you go on a hunt (which I highly recommend), make sure you have good hiking shoes and make sure you can handle a hike in hilly terrain! I’ll name Barto’s owner and guide as M., because I don’t know if he wants to be named. He is an expert truffle person and we were fortunate to have M., Gemma, and Barto to guide us! A-plus day!!

A great truffle hunting experience in a forest with Bartho the dog, Gemma and her partner.

Published on Nov, 2024

We had a wonderful time truffle hunting with Bartho the dog, Gemma and her partner, the truffle hunter. Bartho led the way while we trudged behind, always excited and happy when he starts barking and scratching at the dirt. We learnt a lot from Gemma, who was happy to share her knowledge and to answer any questions. Come prepared with proper footwear suitable for forest trekking. The amazing scenery was a real bonus! We had so much fun that it didn't matter that the truffles found that day was small. The highlight was when a white truffle was found - the aroma was just amazing! All in all, worth every dollar paid. We love Bartho!! Will do this again when we next visit Assisi.

Unique Italy Experience

Published on Nov, 2024

This was a fun excursion and a unique experience in Italy. We learned a lot about truffle hunting and what to look for to find them which I was always curious about coming from Oregon where truffles exist. You do go off trail, up and down somewhat steep hillsides so be prepared. But it goes to show that truffle hunting is not a walk in the park!

Bucket list item checked!

Published on Oct, 2024

What an interesting experience this was! Gemma was a great guide and explained truffle hunting in a very informative way. It was very exciting to be part of the truffle hunting experience. I would definitely recommend this experience. Make sure you wear good walking shoes!

Interesting experience!!

Published on Oct, 2024

Very interesting to learn about where and how truffles grow. Barto the dog was the best :) Wear good hiking clothes!
