I would highly recommend The Italian Trotter for helping arrange a trip to Piedmont and northern Italy. They are very professional, prompt and made our stay memorable for a lifetime. We will undoubtedly use them again! read less4 months ago - Ken WeiThe Italian Trotter is absolutely the best provider of... read moreThe Italian Trotter is absolutely the best provider of bespoke wine and food experiences in Italy. They specialize in Piedmont, but also have strong connections to Tuscany, Emilia-Romagna, Sicily and other provinces. Elena, one of the proprietors, is a native Piemontese with deep knowledge and experience of the Langhe, Alta Langa, Monferrato and the surrounding areas. She has a deep network across the region, which she mines to create custom wine and food adventures throughout the region. These include the standards -- truffle hunts and barolo tastings -- but for the more adventurous gastrotravelers might extend to unique experiences with local cheese producers, up-and-coming winemakers, organic farmers, hazelnut orchards, learning to make your own 'plin', the Barberas of Nizza and the like. I highly recommend that you reach out to them for your next Italian foodie adventure! read less4 months agoAubrey WilkersonMy husband and I have worked with Elena at... read moreMy husband and I have worked with Elena at the Italian Trotter on multiple trips. The experiences designed for us, have all been top quality. I love how I can provide a wishlist of things we are interested in, and we get a bespoke day filled with activities I would have never been able to find on my own. Highlights have included truffle hunts, cheese tastings and of course visiting some of the best wineries. Additionally on our last visit to Italy, they planned the best cooking class combined with a wine tasting. Highly recommend! read less4 months agoKarin de Zwart - van der BlomWe were in Piemonte and stayed in a very... read moreWe were in Piemonte and stayed in a very nice hotel where we enjoyed a great diner at the first evening, after we had a private wine tasting. At Saturday morning Elena picked us up at the hotel and guided us during the day. We started with a great truffle hunt and on our way to this hunt she told us a lot about the region. The truffle hunt was a fantastic experience and the dogs found some! After the hunt Elena took us to an authentic Italian restaurant, where all the locals were enjoying their lunch and where we got a three course lunch (Elena gave us good advice about what to choose). It was delicious! We continued our truffle experience by visiting the truffle market in Alba. All those truffles there; it was amazing! After the market we walked through Alba and Elena was explaining a lot about this beautiful town. At 5 p.m. we were back at the hotel and had some free time for ourselves and to prepare us for a Michelin star diner. Elena, thank you for the great tours, great choice for the restaurants, your nice company and the sharing of all your knowledge about this wonderful region! We will be back!

It was just the three of us, so our visits at the winery were intimate and very informative. Elena picked us up from our lodging, and took us back at the end of the day. We found her to be very personable, knowledgable and ready to provide advice on whatever else we wanted to do. In retrospect, I would have enjoyed another day with Elena, as she has quite a nice range of experiences to choose from. Our day was curated to be an introduction to the Barolo area, as it was our first time there, but Elena will make your tour whatever you want it to be. Just have to say that her tour really helped us to get the most out of our visit to Piemonte. Thanks Elena, hope to see you again! read less5 months agomaria pinheiroFomos a Piemonte em setembro de 2023, e tivemos... read moreFomos a Piemonte em setembro de 2023, e tivemos a sorte de contratarmos The Italian Trotter.
