About this activity
This is the real thing. The No. 1 truffle hunting tour. Truffle hunting in the land where his majesty -

THE TRUFFLE - is at home.

We'll meet at your hotel in Ljubljana and arrange all necessary in order for you to take part in this authentic experience. 

Start this adventure with a truffle hunting family, whose

3rd generation is now hunting for truffles. Friendly hosts will tell you all about truffles, the tradition of truffle hunting, and their truffle hunting dogs. But above all, they will take you to the 

BEST truffle hunting spot that just few locals know about. Tasting of truffle products will be prepared for you in beautiful surroundings, and you will also have the opportunity to buy truffle products in the nearby shop.

You will enjoy a true authentic "truffle hunting", accompanied by an expert truffle hunter with dogs, through a typical Istrian wood. This unique experience, suitable for small groups and private ones, takes place in the beautiful hilly area surrounding even more idyllic countryside of the central Istria. Entering the wood is an exciting ritual, an indescribable mix of emotions and impressions: the scent of nature, the silence interrupted only by the sound of the wind rustling the leaves. During the truffle hunting, your guide will tell you about the traditions, history, and legends of this precious tuber.

After this wonderful experience, you will have a chance to taste various Istrian dishes made with truffles: 
• Aromatic cheese from sheep’s, goat's and cow’s milk with chopped fresh truffles,
• Dried sausage enriched with Istrian truffles,
• Uniquely flavored acacia Eco-honey with added white truffle,
• Extra virgin olive oil with black truffle flavor,
• Truffle pate (spread),
• Omelette with Truffles,
• FRITULE - old Istrian dessert.

and of course, all accompanied by a glass (or two) of local Teran and Malvazija wine.
