The Polo Day option is great for those who have never played this sport and want to experience it! It’s a day tour and it’s an ideal opportunity to get familiar with this characteristic sport so typical of our country. Beginners shouldn’t worry, the horses are very easy to handle!

 

The estancia is located in Cañuelas, only 1 hour away from Buenos Aires City and half an hour away from Ezeiza International Airport.

Itinerary

  • Pick up at 9 AM from Buenos Aires City. Transfer to the estancia.
  • Welcome reception at the hotel boutique with coffee or mate and homemade bread. Here guests will meet the polo instructor who will give a small introduction about the sport and the history of the place.
  • Polo lessons: once ready, they will go to the stables nearby. Here they will also learn about the training and taking care of the polo horses. Guests will be provided with the riding equipment: helmet and mallet. Once on the horses, the instructor will first teach the riders the basic riding commands: how to go forward, how to stop, how to go either way. After this, they will learn how to use the mallet and hit the ball.
  • Lunch will be at 13 Hs. The instructor will take the riders back to the hotel where together they will have lunch in the beautiful garden. Usually the option is asado, but this can be adapted to the guests preferences.
  • After lunch, guests can choose between having another lesson and playing a mini cucker or watching a polo practice. This last option is every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday when the club members play. There are also other activities to do, like biking or riding for pleasure. In summer times there is also a swimming pool.
  • At 18 hr, after a snack, a car will take the guests back to Buenos Aires City.
