Private truffle hunting experience in the forests of San Miniato with professional truffle hunter Francesca and her trained dog. Exclusively for your group — no other participants.
Duration: 3 hours
Private gourmet tasting at the historic 16th-century estate featuring fresh truffles collected during your experience, farm produce, local wine and olive oil.
San Miniato is not just another stop on a Tuscan itinerary. It is the world capital of truffle — a place where the forest changes with the seasons and every visit offers something different. What you find is what the land has to give at that precise moment: not a standardised product, but something alive.
This experience takes you to the heart of that world.
**How it works**
The experience begins at a 16th-century estate that hosts the experiences. From there, you enter the forests of San Miniato with Francesca, a professional truffle hunter with decades of experience and her trained truffle dog. The hunt is real: no script, no pre-hidden truffles. You walk, you listen, you learn to read the woodland.
Back at the estate, you sit down to taste: the truffles just collected, farm produce, local wine. A meal made from what the forest gave that morning.
