Plan a trip with Girl Scouts!

Expand her horizons and give her imagination room to roam. Travel invites challenges that cultivate many life skills, including route-finding, cooperation and leadership. The excitement and adventure of traveling with her Girl Scouts sisters is an experience she’ll never forget!

Girl Scouts at all levels may participate in day trips, backyard camping and non-camping overnights at places such as the YMCA, church, or school. Other types of trips are dependent upon age and level:

  • Brownies and older girls may participate in domestic trips of up to two nights and three days.
  • Juniors and older may participate in domestic trips of up to four nights and five days.
  • Cadettes and older may participate in longer trips and travel internationally.

All overnight trips require that an application be completed and submitted and may also require additional documentation. Domestic trip applications are due four months prior to departure, and international trip applications are due eight months prior to departure.

The Troop Trip Application Packet contains all the information you need to plan a Girl Scout trip, such as what is required for a trip, guidelines for transportation and accommodations and insurance information.
