Travel and destinations |

There are many opportunities for travel in Girl Scouts for all girls. Learning to plan trips and travel as a group is one of the basic experiences in Girl Scouting. In Girl Scouting, travel is about fun, exploration and progressive experiences in appreciating the outdoors, new places and other cultures. As girls grow older and more experienced in travel, the scope of their travel broadens to include travel across the country or abroad on a girl-planned trip with sister Girl Scouts, or as an individual in a council or Girl Scouts of the USA sponsored destination.
