Girl Scout Trips and Travel Opportunities

Travel Destinations

Each year, Girl Scouts from all over the world travel to dozens of locations on Girl Scouts-sponsored trips called Destinations. Destinations are the ultimate Girl Scout travel experience. Each Destination is made up of a group of individual Girl Scouts who are passionate about travel and connecting to the worldwide Girl Scout Sisterhood.

GSUSA invites all Girl Scouts ages 11 to 18 to apply for Destinations. Check out their travel web site for available trips and download the application. Girls who want to apply early should aim to complete their application by November 1st so their references have enough ti me to finish their part by the early

decision deadline of November 15th .

After November 15th, most Destinations will still have spaces remaining! Applications will remain open on a rolling basis (first come, first served) until the trip is listed as “FULL” on the website and application link. •Applicants who apply after November 15th should expect a decision from the Destination host within three weeks of applying.
