AN EXPERIENCE LIKE NO OTHER!!! - I had read about the Charros of Jalisco in the Copa Airlines magazine and thought it would be a nice activity to share with family. Jose Torres and his team are part of a brotherhood with centuries of tradition. They gave everyone a warm welcome and got into the work with horses right away. Everyone got a chance to ride the pretty quarter-mile horses that are used in the show. Got a crash course in how to use the rope and got a few shots at the wooden calf. Then we went to the main building where Manuel, one of the charros, shared some of the history of charros and their role in the Mexican armed forces. We were treated to a class on how to sample tequila and Jorge Torres delgihted the crowd with some heart felt songs. We were then taken to the arena where we could see the skill of charros riding, roping and competing. They show their skills and the diversity of the events prove that this is quite a spectacle. It will be a wonderful experience for those horse lovers and people interested in the history of the Mexican charro. None better than Jorge Torres and his team to bring it for you.

Must try experience! So much culture and history! - Great time! Was able to learn so much about the history and the meaning behind Charros. Jorge was helpful and was able to answer any questions as well as a good teacher for learning to lasso and ride the horse.
