Highlights

I'm a professional truffle hunter from 3 generations in Alba. My grandfather after the 2nd world war was one of the first truffle hunters, he taught my father all the secrets about the precious "ipogean fungus" then my father taught it to me. I'm a dog trainer and actually I've got 3 great dogs: Lisa, Palli & Isi. I would like to teach "some'' of my truffle hunting secrets to travelers. During the tour you will be helped by my friend Margherita. She's an official tourist guide with great passion for truffles and local culture, translating every part of the hunting.

Itinerary

Understand how, where & why truffles grow up in our area, learn the differences between black & white truffle, how dog is trained and enjoy the intense scent. Truffles found during the hunting are not included in the price but you can be purchased from the hunter. White truffle season: from 1st of October to 31st of January - black truffle:different types at different times of the year. During the autumn season, warm and comfortable clothing is recommended, rain coats and rubber boots are available. You will meet your guide in  Alba (train station or cemetery), then be driven through thesurrounding hills to reach the "Trifolao" in one of its secret spots in the middle of nature.
