Argentine Polo Day — Estancia Lesson, Match & Asado
Buenos Aires, Argentina
About This Activity
Argentina produces more world-class polo players than any other country, and a full estancia polo day is one of Buenos Aires' most distinctive experiences. The day typically includes hotel pickup, a polo lesson on a trained horse, an exhibition match, and a traditional asado lunch with Malbec. Estancia Villa Maria (Cañuelas) and Puesto Viejo (near Pilar) are the top operators, both about 1 hour from Buenos Aires. Full-day experiences run approximately $150–200 USD per person including transport, lesson, match, and lunch.
Seasonal note: Main polo season Sep–Dec; estancia day experiences run year-round. Avoid Jan–Feb for outdoor comfort.
