When is the best time to book outdoor activities in Alba?

The best time is during the truffle season, from autumn to early winter, when the woods are rich with truffles and the weather is crisp. Sunset tours are particularly popular, so book in advance to secure your spot, especially on weekends.

How do I choose between the different truffle hunting experiences?

Consider the duration and group size. For a classic experience, choose a 1.5-hour hunt with a trifolao and dog. If you prefer a longer, more private outing, a 2-hour tour with a local guide offers more time in the woods. All options include free cancellation, so you can book with confidence.
