    Paolo was great from day one when I started asking questions almost a year before booking. He made it very easy to book and also figure out where best to stay and how to get around once in Florence. The tour and cooking class themselves were brilliant. Gio was a great truffle hunter and Achilles sniffed out the truffles so easily. The cooking class with Cristian was really great too and helpful. He had a bunch of great tips that we took home with us. I would do this tour again in a heartbeat and choose another tour. We will be coming back

    Words cannot describe this experience. Carmen, Laura, Johnny & Aquiles made us all feel welcomed. Agriturismo Corzano is beautiful. From the gardens outside to the cozy interiors, you feel at home. The truffle hunting was one of the most wonderful experiences ever. Seeing Aquiles at work, under the commando of Johnny was really exciting. Chef Cristian is a great teacher. Taught us all to make pasta from scratch. Eating it with the truffles was delicious. And the meat at the end, WOW !tender and flavorful. If you’re coming to Florence, add a day to your itinerary and book a truffle hunting|pasta making with Mugello & Tuscany. You’ll be glad you did !

    What is the magic word? No, not that, its truffles! We made our way north from Florence to the beautiful Mugello Valley in our little Fiat for a day of truffle hunting and pasta making. The star of the show was lago, a 10 year old truffle tracking rockstar who led us through the woods around villa Corzano to find 12 truffles. We wrapped up the hunt with a pasta class where we made 3 different truffle pastas; gnocchi, ravioli, and tortelli. Making pasta is fun, easy, and it is super tasty. Our hosts were wonderful, and we learned a lot about truffles and the business of truffle hunting. This was also my first go at hand-made pasta. I may never buy a box of dry pasta again. Such a good time.

    Would recommend 100%. They provided a car service from the train station that took us straight to the village. The view was amazing, the truffle hunter & the dog were great! The cooking class was phenomenal, we made pasta and used the truffles we found on the pasta. Amazing day!

    What to expect

    Our Tuscany truffle hunt and cooking class is a wonderful half-day tour focused on Tuscan truffle. You will start with an exciting truffle hunt, guided by a truffle expert and by the nose of his faithful dog. Once you have finished you’ll learn how to use truffle in the kitchen preparing a delicious 3-course lunch at an organic farm just a few km from Florence. Tuscany truffle hunt and cooking class take place in the Mugello Valley near Florence. This particular area of Tuscany is fortunate enough to produce a variety of truffles throughout the year. Thus there’s always a good chance of finding truffles in our selected areas. The protagonist of the truffle hunting is certainly the dog that patiently scours the woods sniffing for truffles. Suddenly the dog begins to scratch the ground thus attracting the attention of his master. The truffle hunter instead with his “small hoe” delicately enlarges the little hole just indented by the dog. He then gently extracts the truffle from the ground and rewards the dog.
