Night polo in Buenos Aires on an illuminated field, plus empanadas, asado, unlimited wine, and real hands-on play.
“The polo match is far from the city crowds. The food is delicious. Wine is plentiful. The horses are beautiful and the teams are friendly. A personal guide tells you all about the game. (He plays polo internationally as well. ) Polo matches are exciting to watch. The horses gallop breathtakingly fast and close to the wall of the arena. You get to throw the ball in to start each chucka and end each one by ringing a loud brass bell. I’ve loved horses all of my life So glad I could experience this.”
Spend a full day at Estancia Santa Susana with Argentine BBQ, gaucho skills, antique rides, and tango and folklore show near Buenos Aires.
“We missed the excursion due to lack of clear communication from the vendor. Poor communication prior to the event. My voucher had one ouck up point. The location was changed. Prior to the day of the excursion, I asked several times what time the van would board guests. I received a response the day of the excursion. Poor customer service.”

A full-day estancia polo experience outside Buenos Aires with a pro match, guided lesson, hands-on riding, and asado with premium wine.
“We had a wonderful day with Juanse as our host. Whilst I chose not to ride, my travel partner, who is an experienced rider had a fantastic time watching the morning chuckas, learning the basics and then getting to play some polo with the group and the support staff. He specifically noted how well the day was run to include people with varied (including none) riding experience. Lunch was great - lots of various meats, veggies and wine or juice etc. as a non rider I really enjoyed the park like grounds, the birds, watching the games, and the dogs - bring your binoculars. All round positive and fun day.”
Private 3-hour Delta boat tour with onboard Argentine asado, wine, and a flexible itinerary for up to 8 people from Buenos Aires.
“A great experience with the boat. Our captain was very nice and treated us to a BBQ. The boat is in good condition and even has a toilet. Communication with the organizer was very good. Unfortunately, the pick-up didn't work out exactly. We drove there ourselves and received a discount. A great experience that we can happily recommend!”
