Following previous memorable trips to Tuscany, we shall again be returning to Hotel Torretta in Montecatini Terme from 2nd to 16th July 2024. Next year’s programme will include visits to Renaissance gardens, Volterra, Sienna, Vinci, and time for trekking and opera in Lucca.
There will be plenty of free time to relax and explore nearby cities such as Viareggio, Florence, Pisa, Prato and Pistoia.
Each day finishes with a delicious Tuscan dinner and good conversation.
Please note: This popular holiday is now full but we are taking names for 2025!

Keeping your information up to date is important so that Group Leaders can contact you, we can send you our U3A Newsletter and you can be kept informed of events organised by our u3a.
