What To Expect

Would you like to experience the once-in-a-lifetime thrill of truffle hunting with dogs? Follow our truffle hounds through the woods and experience the surge of excitement as they locate this edible treasure.

This is the real thing. The No. 1 truffle hunting tour. Truffle hunting in the land where his majesty - THE TRUFFLE - is at home. We'll meet at the Koper's cruise ship terminal (or hotel or any other preferred pickup location in Koper, Izola, Piran and Portoroz) and arrange all necessary in order for you to take part in this authentic experience.

Start this adventure with a truffle hunting family, whose 3rd generation is now hunting for truffles. Friendly hosts will tell you all about truffles, the tradition of truffle hunting, and their truffle hunting dogs. But above all, they will take you to the BEST truffle hunting spot that just few locals know about. Tasting of truffle products will be prepared for you in beautiful surroundings.
