Italy’s Piedmont region is known as a gastronomic capital. On this private tour, you won’t just get to taste some of its most famous culinary products—you’ll go behind-the-scenes and see how they’re produced.

A path entirely within the Unesco Canelli core area and L'asti spumante, among vineyards, castles and panoramic towers. Medium difficulty route, with off-road sections that require a fair mastery of the bicycle, and short uphill stretches to be tackled with ebikes or by trained people. During the excursion we will stop in the cellar for a wine tasting.

Discover the food of Alba during a walking tour of the town. A perfect treat for foodies, the experience includes up to five tastings (or enough for lunch), which is sure to satisfy the hungriest of stomachs. You’ll savor cheese, baked goods, gourmet truffles, and chocolate, as well as a risotto or pasta with wine, and explore the streets at the same time.

The excursion starts with the welcoming of the tourists with the spectacular panoramic views of La Morra and the Alta Langa. There will be first a check of the equipment, after which, Marco will give an introduction to the hunting experience. Once ready, the hunt will start, following down the path between vineyards and hazelnut fields, admiring the flowering nature in the spring, the green and shady plants of the warm summer and the gorgeous colours of the autumn. Trickling the fancy of the people with stories of truffle from his grandfather´s time until today they reach the truffle forest, called “tartufaia”, where the dog becomes the leader. You will follow him on the small paths in the forest until he will find a precious truffle. Than you can feel and see the verve and enthusiasm of the truffle hunter and his dog when they individuate and take it out of the ground, being careful for not to damage the truffle and the ground around it.
