Excellent hunting experience

Typical Tuscany hunting experience...

Hospitality and friendly atmosphere

Nothing

Very professional

Great hunt we saw a few but I tried getting in bow range. If I was using a rifle I would have taken a nice boar. I will be going with them again.

Hello Dee, Thank you very much for this great review! It's amazing to read that you had a great experience in our Reserve, and it's a pleasure for us that you came here! We can not wait to see you again, we're sure that is going to be even better than last time :D

Great people average hunting

I really enjoyed the wine and food pairing they arranged for us before our hunt. I would highly recommend this to future hunters who like wine and food. The owner and guides were very friendly and all expressed their love for hunting. Good quality bow and firearms.

Three of us hunting for one evening and did not see a boar. Because it was a one night hunt our expectations weren’t super high but we thought someone may have seen or shot one. It would be nice to see trail camera pictures of boars before the hunt so it boosts your confidence that there are in fact boars using the bait sites. The sites on the bow I was using were not accurate at 30 yards. They were good for 20 yards. I would have preferred the option to tune the sights at 30 yards rather than having to compensate. The three hunters were all rather close together which makes me think we were all hunting the same boars. It would be nice to see a larger area covered rather than all hunters being within 500 yards of one another. Ie everyone parked at the same spot and then walked 5-10 mins from there. I have never hunted boars before but I would assume they can smell very well. A couple of the guides smelled pretty strong of calogne which makes you wonder if that’s why the boars did not come in. I really felt catered to during the food and wine pairing, during the hunt not so much. But they were very friendly

Hello Matt, First of all thank you very much for your review. On one hand, we're very happy that you enjoyed the hospitality and the wine and local products, on the other hand we're very sad that the hunt didn't meet your expectations. Your words help us improving our services, but there are few points I'd like to specify. The fact that you were close the one from the other does not affect in any case the hunt (if you give me your email address, I will send you some pictures of other hunters that were in your same situation and locations and that hunted perfectly). The same for the cologne, it did not affect at all the fact that any wild boar was in the area. The best months for wild boar hunting when the success rate is at its top goes are may, june, and july (indeed, the hunters that were here during these months experienced a great hunting activity). It will be our pleasure to have you back here in one of those months with a special treatment: you will pay the overnight sleeps and the hunt will be entirely paid only if it is going to be successfull (otherwise you'll have a 50% discount on it). We are sure that you will have a great time and that the hunting is going to be very very successful. Lookiong forward to seeing you next year. Iulia

Good hunting experience

Francesco was a great!

Memorable Hunt in Tuscany, Highly Recommend

My family enjoyed the complete experience very much - Hunt, Food and Friendship. The food was simply outstanding and it was the best meal we had in our 9 day stay in Europe. I would describe it simply as "Good people and Good Time". Do not miss the opportunity. Francisco and his family run operation exceeded our expectations in all regards. We will book again soon..

There was nothing to not like!

Thank you again for choosing us and for your review, we're looking forward to having you again here soon!

Excellent hunting experience

The overall experience was excellent. Our guides were extremely friendly and the setups were very good. I was very impressed with the quality of the property. Between three hunters, we shot one boar and had another boar and two roebuck pass by the setups. The food and wine was some of the best I've had in 9 months of living in Italy, and the two firearms and bow are completely tricked out and in excellent condition.

Francesco, owner and guide outfitter

Dear Peter, thank you very much for your amazing words. We're so delighted that you enjoyed every single moment of your experience and that you appreciated both the Reserve, the house where you slept and the dinner. We really hope to see you soon again, other wildboars are waiting to be hunted by you!

Warm and welcoming

The environment and accommodation were very good, they were warm and friendly. The area we shot was good, I’m mainly stalk, this shooting from a hide - so new experience.

My lack of Italian, but we used translators and for the most it was ok-
