What people are saying about Barbaresco

We had an amazing driver, who was almost like our guide too. The truffle hunt was a once in a life time like experience. We thought they might have planted the truffles as a tourist trap going into this excursion; however, we were delightfully surprised this was not the case. Our dog found 9 truffles all ranging in sizes. The family and our truffle guide was so pleasant. We did not want to leave. We enjoyed the wine tasting, but we would have preferred to have gone to Alba to do some possible shopping of the truffles. All in all, it was a great experience and certainly would recommend.

One of the best parts of our trip, our guide Marco was very knowledgeable and was able to get us up to speed before we even made it to the wineries. All the tastings were set up for us at a perfect variety of wineries to get a feel for the area. Would 100% take this tour again when back.

From beginning to end, I had a wonderful, truly authentic experience. Perfectly organized, everyone I encountered was kind and dedicated. Not only do I highly recommend it, I can't wait to do it again. A memorable day.

Excelent tour!!! Excelent food!! Excelent wine!! Excelent driver!!
