An Unforgettable Truffle Hunt Experience!
This was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy! We had the entire day to ourselves, which made the experience feel so personal and relaxed. Erik and Brunello were absolutely amazing hosts and made us feel right at home. Watching the dogs hunt for truffles was so much fun—they were adorable, energetic, and incredibly talented! And the truffle brunch was absolutely delicious. The food was amazing and truly showcased the incredible flavors of the region. We loved every minute of this experience and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Italy. A wonderful day, great people, amazing dogs, and unforgettable food!

Fun truffle hunting with great food!
Such a great experience! As soon as we arrived, we met our host, Franscesca, Bruno the truffle hunter, and the truffle dog. We headed out and within minutes the dog had found the first truffle. Many more truffles were found over the next half hour, which was so much fun to watch! And then our Francesca prepared multiple delicious truffle snacks for us to enjoy on a beautiful patio overlooking the valley. Such a fun morning and I would highly recommend this!

Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Perugia.
How much does Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting cost?
+
Prices start at $143 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Perugia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Perugia is not rushed.
Is Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Perugia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Perugia can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Perugia and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Perugia within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Perugia?
+
On Outty we rank every Perugia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Taste Perugia: The Original Perugia Food Tour (All-Inclusive), Taste Umbria: Full Meal Walking Tour in Perugia by Do Eat Better, Organic cooking class with a sommelier in an Olive and wine farm. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Perugia?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Perugia?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting?
+
Included: Truffle hunting tour; and Truffle tasting. Not included: Transportation to/from location. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
What languages is Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Italian. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to Umbria Truffle Hunting Experience with Tasting if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
