Buenos Aires Polo Match and Lesson With Lunch

Buenos Aires Polo Match and Lesson With Lunch

5.0 (456) 🕑 9 hours Free cancellation

Depart your hotel in central Buenos Aires by comfortable minivan. Gaze out the window at the Argentinian pampas during your journey and listen to your guide's introduction to the sport of polo.  Arrive at the country club to a snack of wine and empanadas accompanied by a talk about Argentina's passion for polo. Learn about some of the top players and the breeding program that ensures the exceptional polo horses' blood lineages are passed on.  Watch a live polo match that takes place over four fast-passed chukkas, or quarters, and involves 30 horses thundering up and down the field. Look to your guide for explanations of the rules, techniques and strategies on the field.  Enjoy a traditional Argentinian asado (barbecue) for lunch, including grilled meats and local wine. Choose a vegetarian or fish dish if you prefer. Walk the grounds or take a dip in the country club's pool after lunch. Then saddle up for your polo lesson, which begins with a safety briefing and introduction from your expert teacher. Get your leg up on a horse that's suitable for your skill level and practice holding the polo mallet, or taco, before engaging in a mini-match with your fellow classmates.  After your day of adventures on the polo field is over, enjoy drop-off back at your Buenos Aires hotel.
