It is well-known that Tuscany is one of the best destinations for truffle lovers to visit, it is home to San Miniato, which is famous for its annual globally-renowned truffle festival, and there is no shortage of truffle-based dishes and food products to choose from in Tuscan stores and restaurants. However, if you were thinking about booking a vacation rental in San Miniato and spending some time in Tuscany and exploring her food culture, then there is a particular company that you should probably know about: Truffle In Tuscany. If you are interested in Tuscan truffle recipes or how to find truffles in Tuscany, then this is an ideal company to look into as they arrange a variety of different truffle-based activities and itineraries.
Established by Massimo, a San Miniato native who has truffle-hunting in his blood and comes from a long line of truffle enthusiasts, Truffle In Tuscany started as a personal passion and is now a leading truffle tour operator that allows visitors and tourists to experience the truffle and food culture of this beautiful part of Tuscany. There are a variety of tour options to choose from, depending on your particular interests.

There are a variety of tour options to choose from, depending on your particular interests.
The first of these tour options is the Truffle Experience in which Massimo and his family take groups out into the woods of Tuscany to try out truffle hunting with his specially trained truffle hunting dog. To begin with, visitors will be briefed about the importance of respecting and caring for the woods and will then be guided through the space, in search of truffles, learning all the while about truffles, their history, legends, traditions, uses, qualities, how to spot the real deal, and more. You will also learn all about the biggest truffle in history, which was found in San Miniato in 1954. All of this can be offered in English and all throughout the year.
Another option is the Luxury Truffle Experience, which is much the same but more extensive and also offers a tasting or lunch or dinner or cooking class based on the fresh truffles found on the day. The Truffle & Lunch Experience specifically combines an excursion in the woods with lunch, the Cooking Class Experience is specifically truffle hunting and a cooking class, and the Truffle & Winery Experience pairs becoming a truffle finder in the woods for the day with heading to a local winery to take a tour and then taste some pairings of wines with truffle dishes. There is also the Luxury Cooking Experience with an expert Italian chef and team to learn how to prepare a starter, fresh pasta, a typical Tuscan dish that combines meat and truffles, and dessert.
In addition to all of this, there are a range of different options of corporate packages available for companies who are looking for recreational activities to enjoy in Tuscany on a company outing. Contact the team directly at Truffle in Tuscany for more information about the specific options from which you can choose.
So, whether you are heading to San Miniato during the San Miniato Truffle Festival or during truffle season, whether you just want to sample some truffle products and dishes or learn how to perfectly cook with truffles or you want to actually go out and try your hand at finding some truffles for yourself, Truffle in Tuscany can offer all of these experiences and much more besides. So, secure your vacation rental in San Miniato (or find a luxury villa in Tuscany and head to San Miniato for the day) and come and immerse yourself in the truffle culture of this beautiful part of the region. See what all the fuss is about for yourself!
