Alba, founded in pre-Roman times, now hosts the International White Truffle Fair in October and November each year. This is the most important truffle fair in the world and draws a huge audience. It’s definitely the place to have a fonduta or tagliarin with truffles! If you are interested in a fully immersive truffle experience, talk to our host, Franco, about organising a truffle hunt. Alba is also home to beautiful buildings, interesting museums, and delicious food. It is worth your time to spend a day exploring this city, whatever your interests!
