Matteo was most professional of guides we have ever experienced. Knowledgeable and friendly on top of his sommelier background, he was also humorous and pleasant. I would highly recommend this well executed trip.

Wonderful experience! Matteo our guide was warm, engaging, and very knowledgeable. Truffle hunt was fun & informative. Aki, the truffle hunting dog, was very sweet & so good at his job 😀 Food, truffle & wine tasting was amazing. Also had a great time getting to know the other folks in the tour. Great getaway from the fast paced scene of Florence.

Sam, our driver, met us on time in Florence. Was full of “you need to know” Florence information. Tomaso, the co-owner of Castelló Di Coiano estate and winery was phenomenal and shared wonderful history about the estate, visited private rooms and Leonardo, and Aquí (truffle hunter and dog) were so passionate about their work that their enthusiasm was infectious and a delight to all participants. Leonardo also doubles as chef and his food paired with Tomaso’s wine made for a fabulous afternoon wine-ing and dining on the terrace. Thank you for a wonderful and truly memorable day!

We loved our full day tour truffle hunting, wine tasting, and a visit to San Gimignano. The truffle hunt takes place in a forest adjacent to a castle. The truffle hunter made us a delicious lunch while we tasted the wines of the castle. The van has great air conditioning with a convenient pick up spot in central Florence. Highly recommend!


Highlights

This 8-hour small-group tour from Florence takes you truffle hunting in the woods of San Miniato in Tuscany and on to San Gimignano, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Follow a truffle hunter and his trained dog to find truffles in the woods, then enjoy a truffle-based lunch with handmade pasta and local wine. You also taste wine and tour the underground cellar at a medieval winery and an 18th-century villa, with a local English-speaking guide who is a certified sommelier leading a small group of up to 8 people.
