Feel the passion of the Mexican 'charrería' horseman culture with this special experience in Guadalajara, which includes a 'charro' cowboy show and the possibility of taking a fantastic horseback ride.

Traditional Mexican Cowboy Show

We will pick you up from your hotel in Guadalajara at 10 am before heading to the famous Charro Jalisco arena, the oldest 'charreria' venue in Mexico. We will start by learning about the origin of this tradition. The charrería is a rodeo where the riders or 'charros' showcase their expertise on horses.

Then, we will make a brief guided tour of the arena: the enclosure where the taming of steeds and 'charreria' shows take place. In the facilities, we will also see the 12 magnificent awards in the trophy room.

After this, you will jump onto a horse and learn how to handle the reins and tame the steeds, just like a true charro cowboy. The venue staff will teach you essential techniques to communicate with the horse.

As the highlight of the experience, we will witness a professional 'charro' show. After enjoying the performance, you will have the chance to wear the traditional rider's hat and make the 'charro' oath.

The activity is scheduled to end at 2:30 pm. Once the experience is over, you can choose to stay longer at the venue or return to the hotel.
