Thame & District

Day Trips and Outings

This is a list of all forthcoming trips that are organised by various groups including:

  • Day Trips - these include travel via coach and are usually a little more distant with longer journey times and a comfort stop
  • Garden Visits - these are usually done via car share to gardens within a short drive
  • Tech Trips - these are usually done via car share and are normally within an hour or so
  • Theatre Trips - these take advantage of group booking rates and generally assume you will make your own way to the theatre

Trips are only open to u3a members, priority is given to full members of Thame & District u3a. Not all of these trips will be bookable at this time (look at each trip, when booking opens it will change to show cost, organiser and other details) but you can put a note in your diary if you're interested to keep it free! Please do not make any payment until booking is open.

Once booking opens, usually 1-2 months in advance but this is up to the trip organiser, you can book by contacting the trip organiser (via the trip page) or at one of our Wednesday meetings.
