From July 2025 all holidays are planned and arranged by Newport S E Wales U3A Holiday Group with Norman Allen Group Travel Ltd. Members who are interested in our holidays can add their details to our group and they will be informed and emailed as new holidays are arranged. All holidays are linked with History / Gardening and walking groups and announced at the History and Gardening & Wildlife Groups meetings; in addition full details are initially emailed to all member of the Holiday group - if there are any spaces we email the whole membership.

Annually we aim to arrange one holiday in the UK and one holiday in Europe, the itineraries are tailor made to cover the subjects in our u3a from History, Gardening & Wildlife and Walking Groups.  The holidays are only open to members of our u3a and their partner/friend on a  twin room basis. We keep a reserve list for each holiday incase people need to cancel their booking.
