Experience an authentic Istrian adventure in the heart of the truffle homeland, in the Mirna River valley surrounded by a unique lowland forest. Livade, known as the “center of truffles,” is located right next to the Motovun Forest – the largest and most famous natural habitat of the prized Istrian white truffle.
Join the Bonin Tartufi family, licensed truffle hunters, and specially trained dogs on an exciting search for hidden treasures of the forest. During the tour, you will discover the mysterious underground world of truffles, learn about their unique growth and development, and explore the delicate technique of extracting them from the ground without damaging their natural habitat. We will introduce you to local traditions, the secrets of truffle hunting craftsmanship, and guide you through the untouched nature surrounding our home in Livade, located directly next to the Motovun Forest.
After a successful hunt, relax and enjoy a tasting of premium truffle delicacies in a warm and authentic atmosphere, where you will experience the perfect blend of Istrian nature, tradition, and gourmet gastronomy.
