Full day tour of Istria with truffle tasting
Overview
Enjoy a day of visiting the main features of coastal and inland Istria. Join me in discovering the amazing history, culture and local life of the hilltop towns of Motovun, Groznjan and the beautiful coastal town of Poreč.
Learn about the differences of living on the coast vs hinterland, notice the differences in food, local customs and people. We will visit one of the main truffle producers so you can taste the magical ingredient that has marked the gastronomy of the Istrian hinterland.
Among the beautiful views of the land and the sea we are going to have lunch in a local inn (konoba) where the food comes directly from the owner's garden. (Lunch is not included in the price of the tour)
We are going to walk the ancient town of Poreč through its narrow cobbled-stone streets constructed by the Romans in the 1st century B. C.
