6 h
With local
Class
About this activity
Our truffle hunting tours will take you to hunt this famous local product of Umbria. Our truffle hunter will show you how to find truffles walking through the woods, how to use them in the best way, giving all the secrets, and furthermore how to cook and enjoy them.
To do a truffle hunt is a unique experience for blending good food, traditions and contact with locals.
It will start in the morning at a farm. From there together with a truffle hunter we will enjoy a walk in a wood with trained dogs hunting the so called black diamond of Umbria, truffle.
At the end of our walking we will go back to the farm where we will make home made pasta - tagliatelle - to get dressed with your truffle. We will also see and practice how to make home made cheese and then of course we will taste everything for lunch.
Our lunch will take place in the farm and we will get local food, mainly produced in the farm itself.
