    Francesca and Family were Awesome!!! She and her Truffle hunting wizard were unbelievable!!! Thank you to the entire familia!!. The experience was amazing but the intermediate tour reseller between Viator and the Truffle Hunting family has not responded to numerous emails, texts and phone calls since the tour. PROBLEM; We paid for 3 persons over $700.000 ($204.00 per person). We paid to VIATOR and I have receipt. My wife was ill, and the intermediate tour reseller from Florence, Raffaella Benuzzi, told me that it was non refundable so we chose to bring ablocal friend in place of my wice who met us at the farm, Simone’ a bartender from our hotel…. He arrived late but he enjoyed the entire tour especially the family. The family/owner of the Truffle farm and tour told me that Raffaella Benuzzi was only going to pay her for 2 persons tickets because Raffaella Benuzzi thought my wife didn’t come and we only had 2 people. We did not we had 3. But even if we had 2, I had paid for 3 persons over 200 each… and it would be dishonest for Raffaella Benuzzi to receive the money for 3 from VIATOR and then refuse to pay Francesca the same fir 3?people….. and her, the reseller, cheat francesca and I and the reseller keep the $$$. Now since my friend Simone’ came at the last minute we were 3. However Franscesca only got paid for 2….. even though we were three…. SO, now I have to pay Franscesca tge money she did not get from Raffaella Benuzzi because Benuzzi kept it for herself. So unfair. I spoke to Raffaella Benuzzi before leaving the Truffle Farm and also afterwards. She indicated she would do the right thing. But as of today she has not confirmed , nor has the Truffle farm owner- Francesca confirmed that she paid. I have also written VIATOR about the problem. If she would just pay the kady, I will remove this post. Robin and Nancy Rush

    We had an awesome time truffle hunting. It was a very special experience to watch their dog sniff out so many truffles. We had a lovely lunch and met a nice couple to hunt/dine with as well. I highly recommend this experience! It was memorable.

  • Awesome. Do not miss this as part of any visit

    This was so awesome the highlight of our trip. Francesca explained how the dogs are trained and the life of a truffle hunter since she was 6 years old. The lunch was special with four wine parings and truffles as part of each course

  • Fun way to spend the better part of a day

    After we foraged for truffles - with Levante our puppy truffle hunter - we had lunch using the truffles we found. Lunch was incredibly delicious! I think the most important thing to know is that it’s a bit of a trip to get to San Minato. We took a taxi from Lucca and it was €100 each way. I think it’s more if you’re coming from Florence. We only truffle hunted for a half hour but we enjoyed the beautiful villa for about 2 hours.

From €200.00
