Itinerary
Leave your centrally located Buenos Aires hotel with our transports. We are only 80km away from the city. Arrive at our polo ranch and enjoy a welcome snack of empanadas and Argentinian wine during a fascinating talk about this iconic sport. Watch a match of four chukkas (time periods) involving 30 horses as your guide describes the techniques and rules. At lunch, savor an included Argentinian asado (barbecue) of scrumptious grilled meats, or opt for a vegetarian dish, accompanied by Argentinian wine. After you've digested and relaxed, get ready for a polo lesson! Don't worry if you've never been on a horse or played polo: this lesson is suitable for all skill levels. Grab your taco (polo mallet) and learn the essentials from an expert instructor in a practice session. Once you feel confident, take part in your own mini-game! Afterward, your return journey and enjoy a convenient drop-off at your hotel.

This is genuinely the best GetYourGuide experience I’ve ever booked. Started the day drinking wine and watching a polo match, then had a MASSIVE asado BBQ with more meat than I could eat, and then spent about 2hrs learning how to play polo and ride horses. genuinely a highlight of the trip and would recommend that anyone who spends any time in Buenos Aires comes here and books this experience.
Amazing <3
Amazing experience - highly recommend. Great food, a ton of fun, and super nice hosts/instructors
THANKS!!!!
Fantastic experience yesterday at the Polo Day. Great to watch professionals play, having fun with a group and play polo. Horses are very well trained, safe and you learn to play in a very friendly environment. Would do it again anytime !
Thank you so much for visiting us! It was a true pleasure to welcome you to our home. We hope to see you again soon!
Great experience and guide throughout entire trip playing polo. Unlike most tours, this is a hands on experience with actual polo plays during the morning match and then you get to play the sport after a huge bbq. Once of the best experiences we had traveling around the world. Highly recommend this trip.
It was a pleasure having you with us. Thank you for choosing Argentina Polo Day and for sharing this special day with us!
I can’t recommend this highly enough. It completely exceeded my expectations. An incredible day, fantastic horses and a wonderful host. Thank you so much 🫶🏻
Thank you for your kind words! We loved having you at our estancia and hope your memories of Argentina stay with you forever.
Our guide, Bahador, was funny, helpful, and educated us on how to play polo properly. The food was amazing, the polo team was great to meet and watch play, I highly recommend coming here. Plus, there are dogs that LOVE getting pet. They are also accommodating with allergies ( gluten, dairy, and nut allergies)
hahaha, Bahador is the best!!
This was the best excursion we’ve ever done on any trip. Bahdor and his team ensured we had an amazing time. The food is incredible. The polo match was amazing to watch…and only became more amazing once we tried to play ourselves and discovered how difficult the sport truly is. The entire area is so beautiful that it’s worth the trip itself. Bahdor could not have been a better guide for us the entire them ensuring our safety and that we had the best time. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough!
We're so happy you enjoyed your experience! Thank you for visiting, and we hope to welcome you back someday.
This was the most incredible experience in Buenos Aires, from the food, to the beauty of the club to learning to play polo. Every part was a highlight!! Worth every dollar and will be back next time I’m in Buenos Aires.
Thank you for being our guests. It was an honor to share our passion for polo and Argentine traditions with you.
We had an amazing day on the polo field. Welcomed with Empanadas and our great and lovely instructor ( and professional polo player) Bahador. We met some teamplayers before they started to play a match. Seeing it so up and close was fantastic. What a speed to see these horses work and what a performance! Really astonishing. We had a typical Argentina Bbq and nice conversations with the players who told us more about their life and their love for this sport. Now it was our turn! We geared up and did some practice. Your horse is adapted to your skills and needs. We played a game, did some excersises and just had fun! Bahador was so lovely, patient and a great professional teacher for this introduction of polo! We ended with a ride on their grounds. Just go! We had the best time! Thanks Bahador 🙏🏻
Thanks for your review! We're so glad you enjoyed your day with us. Bahador is awesome and will be pleased to hear these words. We hope to see you back on the court!
It was an amazing experience!! Everyone was so nice. The polo match was breathtaking, the food was delicious, and the polo lesson was a highlight!
Hi, Zoe! We're glad you enjoyed the experience. Whenever you want to come back, we'll be waiting for you with open arms!!
