Truffle hunting, orchard walks and culinary tours across Tuscany

Autumn in Tuscany means white truffles around San Miniato, hunted at dawn with Lagotto dogs and eaten an hour later over hand-cut pasta. Further north, the Trentino apple valleys run a completely different, cooler harvest season.

Local picking tips

  • Truffle hunts start early — the dogs work best in cool, damp air.
  • November is the peak white-truffle window and books out months ahead.
  • Combine a hunt with an olive-oil pressing visit; both peak at the same time.
