Both truffles can mainly be found in Italy and France. LUXURY TRAVEL BUTLER can highly advise you to join a truffle hunter for a day – a unique experience!
You can join a truffle hunter on his daily truffle hunt and then enjoy a lunch of truffle-based dishes. Or what about a truffle cooking course?
Along the tour, you will also learn more about the fascinating history of truffles and truffle hunting.
