Member Testimonial:
"I just returned from my 5th (!!!) Collette trip through UT OLLI. So far, I’ve been to Ireland, Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Switzerland. I can’t say enough about how remarkable, easy and exciting these trips have been. Each one has been a learning experience about the cultures but also my fellow travelers. Please join in on the experience! You will not regret it.”
