Such a fun experience. We felt like we were visiting a local family. We found a couple truffles with the help of Lily and Dalma. Both dogs were friendly and adorable. The lunch was amazing - food was delicious and the view was incredible. The whole family loved this activity. We highly recommend it as a unique experience for Istria.

Excellent experience. Very informative and interesting. Delicious food and wonderful hosts. Hunter was happy to answer any questions. Make sure when you go to experience to enter Karlic tartufi in gps. We entered the meeting point in our gps… Karlić truffles - GIR Ltd., Buzet, Istarska županija, Croatia….and this took us to the wrong place about 20 minutes away. Also, the agenda for the day is a little misleading. It said on our agenda that breakfast and lunch would be provided and it was a brunch.. this did not ruin the experience at all because the meal was exceptional but it’s good to know. We had a wonderful time!!

We learned so much from our tour guide Benjamin and his truffle dogs were fantastic. The meal was delicious as well and it was great for learning about how to cook with truffles.

Loved meeting the dogs and the relationship between them and the truffle Hunter! Be prepared with good shoes for hiking in the woods. And be prepared for a delicious meal at the end!
