Truffle Hunting, Culinary & Wine Celebration from Heraklion

Our award-winning Travel Designers are unapologetic gourmands. Sometimes food is the inspirational part of the craft of our adventures.

That is why we traveled to Crete’s Lassithi Plateau to search for the rare Cretan black truffle – and learned how to cook them with our brilliant local chefs. Now you can do the same.

We’ve designed this unforgettable trip to submerge you into an authentic way of life in one of the island’s most beautiful regions while gaining a deeper understanding of the relationship between recipes, people, and traditions.

This is the land of emotions and the art of planning two great loves: travel and food.
