Truffle hunting and tasting experience in Tuscany
Half-day tour with walk in the woods of San Miniato in search of black and white truffles and tasting of truffle-based products

Private half-day truffle hunting and tasting experience
in the area of San Miniato close to Pisa





The real treasure of the Tuscan underground is the typical white truffle that grows in the region together with the black truffle. Every year the town San Miniato celebrates a national festival where people can taste a lot of truffle-based products as well as some fresh truffles.
Arianna & Friends organizes half-day truffle hunting tours joined with a truffle tasting in one of the most famous local truffle shops of Tuscany.

It is an unrepeatable experience both for your nose and your mouth!

An English speaking private tour leader (on request also German, Spanish, French, Italian or Russian are available) meets you together with a local truffle hunter and brings you through the woods of the Pisan hills for a truffle hunting of 2 hours together with some dogs.
After the hunting a tasting of truffle oil, truffle paste and truffle-based products is organized in a very famous local truffle shop.

It will be your unforgettable memory of Tuscany!

We organize also simple truffle based lunches only at the truffle shop. See more details »

Testimonials from our guests

COMMENTS OF OUR GUESTS

This is an email we received on 22nd May 09 from Jennifer and Kris who met us for a truffle hunting tour:

Dear Massimo,

Thank you for what was definitely the highlight of our trip to Florence. Kris and I had such a fantastic time truffle hunting with you, Riccardo, Stella and Nebbia. It was such an unforgettable, unique experience, and Monica and Riccardo couldn't have been nicer.

I told my travel agent what a fantastic experience it was using Arianna & Friends and that I absolutely recommend your trips. Kris and I have already decided that when we go back to Italy, we want to spend the entire time just taking your tours! Not only did we have a fantastic time in San Miniato, but we truly enjoyed talking with you in the car on the way there and back - we learned so much from you and had so much fun!

As promised, here are some of the pictures we took that day.

Again, thank you for your amazing hospitality and kindness. We'll definitely call you before our next trip and can't wait to use Arianna and Friends again.

Jennifer and Kris
