Truffle Hunting Adventure
My husband and I enjoyed truffle hunting at Karlic plantation. We had the opportunity to hunt truffles with Phillip and Dalma. Dalma, the truffle hunting dog, was so fun to watch! Phillip was very informative and fun. He taught us all about truffles and how the dogs are trained to hunt for them. Dalma found 3 black truffles on our adventure. We had the opportunity to cook with Lydia. She taught us how to make homemade gnocchi with truffle sauce. It was delicious! Lydia was so very friendly and ...read more

More Than a Truffle Hunt – An Unforgettable Istrian Experience

The truffle hunt through the beautiful forest beside the lake was both exciting and fascinating. After the hunt came the absolute highlight: a wonderful cooking experience followed by delicious truffle specialities personally prepared by the owner, Ivana. Her passion, knowledge and love ...read more

Truffle Heaven
This was the most amazing experience. I was in “Truffle Heaven”. Daughter Ivana took us into their museum and explained the whole family history and how they started from nothing. Then we went into the forest with our guide and 2 dogs who did find truffles. After we had the most outstanding lunch. Everything with truffles. But probably the best was the family and staff. We walked out with hugs from everyone at Karlic and lots of products from the store. Don’t miss this. KG

A truffle experience not to be missed!
What a wonderful experience. The truffle hunting experience was wonderful. We went out with a hunter and 2 dogs and watched the dogs dig for truffles. Next stop, a fabulous 5 star lunch with truffles and more truffles in a beautiful restaurant. A wonderful charcuterie board, red and white wine, followed by lunch. We watched as lunch was prepared and enjoyed every bite. Dessert was amazing too. Come hungry!! The family was so welcoming and friendly. This was a magical experience NOT to be missed....read more
