Classic Polo Experience

Argentina

 

 

 

 

Our Classic Polo Experience offers you the chance to travel to Argentina, the world centre of all things polo! Here you will spend your days surrounded by keen and eager polo ponies, wonderful friendly coaches and have the opportunity to live, breathe, and sleep horses all day long.

You will receive a course of tuition that will develop your riding and polo skills whatever level you are currently at.  If you are a complete beginner (never picked up a polo stick) you will be introduced to the game and taught the rules and how to play. Whatever level you start this course at you will progress and develop quickly, leaving Argentina as an improved and accomplished player and all-round better horseman.

Situated on the sweeping plains of Argentina the Classic Polo Experience is a rider’s paradise. With vast expanses of land, polo fields, fantastic facilities and a selection of over 80 fit polo ponies you will have the ultimate equestrian experience and will definitely improve and expand upon your riding and polo skills.
