India is perhaps the best place on earth to learn the Royal sport of Polo. Very few people know that the game originated in the country around 1860 when British Tea Planters based in Silchar got to know about the marvelous sport being played by the locals. TravelIndia.com presents you some of the finest Polo packages for novices and experienced players. And our CEO who has been a two-goal player doubles up as your Polo coach, should you decide to get on a horse and pick up the mallet. Our introductory Polo course is conducted in the picturesque surroundings of Anokhi Farm on the outskirts of Jaipur. The program includes lessons in the basics of polo from experienced tutors, stick and ball sessions and horse rides along the trails around Anokhi Farm and the surrounding countryside. The farm lies just 4 km from the historical city of Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan. Courses are conducted in the morning and evening, so the days can be spent in Jaipur - a great city for shopping and sightseeing. Alternatively, you can just relax on the farm - there's a swimming pool where you can work on your tan and a small gym if you feel the need for an extra work out. Boarding and lodging is provided in an air-conditioned cottage at Anokhi Farm with delicious western and Indian vegetarian meals.
