A sensory journey to learn about Umbria’s "black gold," blending the magic of unspoiled nature with culinary delights. The program celebrates local culinary traditions in an authentic, unhurried manner.

The activity begins in late morning, heading to an area renowned for truffle hunting. Those who book in advance can join a forest hunt led by expert truffle hunters and their trained dogs. This is followed by a truffle-themed lunch—featuring the delicacy in every course from appetizer to dessert—accompanied by house wine, water, and coffee. On the return journey, there is a stop at a medieval Umbrian village, with time to roam quiet alleyways and admire the ancient stonework while soaking up the region's relaxing atmosphere.

The experience requires half a day and is subject to weather conditions. It includes the traditional lunch, the truffle-related activity, and organizational support. The itinerary can be customized upon request, and the exact meeting point is provided at the time of booking.
