Horse Polo Experience
Learn to Play Polo in Argentina
This immersive experience unfolds at La Carona Polo Club in Capilla del Señor, a mere one-hour drive from Buenos Aires. As we delve into the exclusive world of polo, a beloved equestrian game where Argentina is a global powerhouse, prepare for an enriching day.
At the designated time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Buenos Aires to set off to the La Carona Polo Club, an equestrian in Capilla del Señor, only 1 hour from the capital. At this exclusive center, you'll enjoy practicing polo, a popular equestrian sport where Argentina is one of the leaders worldwide.
First, we'll begin with a savoury snack of empanadas and Argentine wine while the club's instructor offers an introduction to the game of polo. Gain knowledge about the sport's origins and fundamental rules during this session. Then, we'll move on to the club's stables, where you'll meet the specially selected polo horses.
Next, you'll witness the exhilarating spectacle of a polo match, featuring four chukkas, where over 30 horses showcase their speed and agility in a fast-paced equestrian display. Seize the opportunity to deepen your understanding of polo rules during this captivating match.
Following the match, we'll enjoy a traditional lunch, an Argentine barbecue including diverse cuts of meat and Argentine wine. A vegetarian option is also available if preferred.
Recharged and energized, we'll embark on a brief stroll around the estate, followed by a polo lesson that unveils the intricacies of playing this dynamic sport. Learn the basic rules, select horses tailored to individual riders, and finally, play a polo game, applying newfound skills for a thrilling experience.
The day will come to an end with a leisurely horse-drawn carriage ride around the ranch facilities, offering a serene and relaxing conclusion to the experience. Finally, we'll wrap up and take you back to your hotel, where we'll say our goodbyes after about 8 or 9 hours.
