We had the Luxury Truffle Experience. It was a surprise celebration of my wife's 70th Birthday. From the moment Antonio met us at Vucecchio San Maniato Station, during the intense collaboration between the delightful Francesca and her dog, finding several white and black truffles along her secret forest path, to the exquisite multi-course truffle lunch in her family mansion, everything was perfect.
My group did a private truffle hunt with Francesca and one of her dogs, Choco! Afterward we had probably the BEST four-course lunch at her family's beautiful estate and I have to say that was the best meal we had eaten during our week spent in Rome and Florence. Choco found three truffles and it was incredible watching dog and handler working as a team to find these delicacies. Thank you for welcoming us in your home and for this unforgettable experience!
