Truffle hunting experience in Istria

by Prodan Tartufi

About the experience

Join us for fun, educational and unforgettable truffle hunting experience. You will learn more about this precious mushroom, dog training and overall tradition of truffle hunting in Istria. Then we will go to the woods in search of truffles with our two dogs and will be looking for truffles in our family forest where 3 generations have been going hunting and searching for this underground treasure for years. After coming back from the woods, we will together prepare full truffle lunch with your freshly found truffles! With the help of mama Prodan, you will learn all the tips and tricks on how to make perfect scrambled eggs with truffles. There will even be a desert with truffles. That is what we call complete truffle experience!

If you think you might have trouble finding the exact location, do not worry. Upon booking confirmation we will deliver exact coordinates to your email address.

Some agencies will let you pick among several pick-up locations or pick you at the specific location of your own choice (e.g. your apartment). This is why they have your phone number and you have theirs - so you can easily arrange this over the phone.

Why this local experience is authentic

For three generations of our family, we have been dedicated to truffle hunting, distribution of fresh truffles and our own truffle products, while we provide guests with unforgettable moments of searching for truffles and tasting products from the farm. And all this in Buzet, a truffle town in the valley of Mirna river, just a five-minute walk from the Seven Waterfalls trail.
