At Les Pastras near Cadenet, an English-speaking guide introduces you to truffle farming before a French hunter and three dogs lead the search beneath oak trees. Afterward, taste three truffle hors d’oeuvres, truffle ice cream, oils, salt, honey, and Champagne while learning how to buy, clean, store, and cook fresh truffles.

“This tour was on our bucket list- and it surpassed all of our expectations. Johan was a fabulous guide, was extremely knowledgeable, fun, and catered to each individual. He even helped us figure out a transportation issue! The fresh truffles and tastings were fantastic. Truffle tasting the French way! We will never buy a fake truffle again! Thank you Johan and Lisa for an unforgettable day!! P.S. Happy anniversary to Vlad and Holly!💕”
