Welcome to the truffles region!

The search for and use of truffles in local gourmet restaurants has a long tradition. Here, the white truffle embodies rural and social micro-history.

In the San Miniato area and in hilly Volterra, fairs and village banquets celebrate the maturing of this tasty parasite, which thrives under oak trees and poplars.

During your guided tour, you will accompany a licensed truffle hunter and his trained truffle-sniffing dog in an exciting hunt for truffles.

Then, you will visit a Truffle Factory, where the owners will explain how they work on truffles, and will offer you a delightful tasting of their products before sampling same typical dishes.

Following this, you will explore San Miniato, a small village famous for truffles in Tuscany.
