Félix and Cecil are wonderful hosts. This was an experience we will always remember. The lunch was outstanding as well. This is an incredible value by friendly and humble hosts. Please be sure to provide a gratuity, they will not ask, but deserve as you can spend twice as much or more for similar experiences. Make sure you are in shape for an occasionally challenging hike in slippery areas and have appropriate hiking boots. Expect to get a little muddy. You will return with an appreciation of the hard work of truffle hunters and their dogs.
What an incredible experience! These are true enthusiasts - both humans and dogs - of truffle hunting. What a thrill to witness the passion of the pursuit, to walk through the field and woods, to see the countryside of Turin, and to taste its local flavors. We were a small group and felt like friends by the end. Highly recommend and hope to come back!
Seriously a once in a lifetime opportunity! This is an authentic truffle hunting experience where you feel truly part of Secil’s family. We were lucky enough to find black and white truffles and then enjoy the fruits of our labour at an authentic trattoria. Great experience, and definitely not to be missed!
