Overview of your Rovinj tour:

Motovun forest in Northern Istria is one of the very few locations in the world where famous white truffles (Tuber Magnatum pico L. ) are growing naturally in symbiosis with roots of different trees. Tartufi (local name) are one of the rarest and most expensive gastronomic delicacies in the world. They grow in depth of 5-50 centimeters and local truffle hunters use dogs to find them, usually between September and November. On this tour, I will take you first to the village of Livade, and stop in Motovun forest, to meet one of the local peasants, who will take us on a stroll to the forest together with dogs, to search for truffles, for approx. 30 - 45 minutes. Afterwards, we will visit Motovun, one of the nicest hilltowns in Istria just above the forest, for a guided walking tour and light snack based on truffles and local wine. Through the tour, I will also tell you a lot about Istrian Peninsula as well. Note: according to law, white truffles search is allowed from Sept. 15th to November 15th only.
