HOW DO WE GET to SAVANNAH?  Air? Bus? Amtrak? Let us put our 117 years of transportation experience to work for your Troop. DeBOLT Girl Scout Tours is uniquely qualified to work with you to find the BEST way for your Troop to get to Savannah. With a group of 30 or more traveling less than 1,000 miles, motorcoach usually works. A small group traveling a long distance? We'll probably recommend flying. If you have a small group from along the Eastern Seaboard, we can arrange special Girl Scout fares for Scouts 15 years old and younger aboard Amtrak. Just give us a call and we can work it out!

Sample THREE DAY/TWO NIGHT itinerary      Day One - Begin your visit by making your Troop’s first stop at the home of our first president, George Washington’s Mt. Vernon. The new Ford Visitor’s Center is an unprecedented introduction to the life of the “Father of our Country”. After dinner we will go on an Illuminated Tour of the Monuments with a local step-on guide.

Day Two - We can help you request appointments at some of Washington’s most notable attractions including the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, the Pentagon, and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Perhaps you would want to contact your local representative for tours of the White House or the Capitol. We can arrange for an extraordinarily moving wreath-laying ceremony in Arlington Cemetery at the Tomb of the Unknowns. Guarded 24 hours a day by specially trained members of the 3rd United States Infantry, the grave stands as a collective memorial to all unidentified U.S. soldiers who lost their lives in combat. The National Zoo with its panda exhibit and Smoky the Bear is always popular with Girl Scouts. And many Troops just like to have free time at the Smithsonian Institution with its variety of museums. Shorter stops can be made at the National Archives, the White House Visitor’s Center, or the Peterson House where President Abraham Lincoln became "one with 'the Ages”.

Day Three - On this day your Girl Scout Troop can visit what they didn’t have time for earlier or it can include additional attractions as the Museum of the American Indian, the National Botanical Garden, the National Cathedral, or the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. Some troops even use a third day to visit Baltimore with its Inner Harbor, National Aquarium, and Ft. Mc Henry.

ONE DAY Trip

If your time is limited we can set up an itinerary that suits the specific interests and preferences of your Girl Scout Troop. We will keep a close eye on your budget as well as your watch.

"HAPPIEST CELEBRATION on EARTH"
All four Walt Disney World resort theme parks - The Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, MGM Studios, and Animal Kingdom - are celebrating the "Happiest Celebration on Earth" with new attractions and shows brought to Florida from Disney Theme Parks around the world. It promises to be the largest celebration in Theme Park history.

   There is only one Walt Disney World, but there are three ways to get your Girl Scout Troop there – and DeBolt knows them all. Air, motorcoach, or Amtrak – we will discuss with you which means of transportation will work best for your Girl Scout Troop. We know the pros and cons, the ins and outs, of not only getting to Walt Disney World, but of also making the most of your visit when there is so much to see and do. We can recommend to your Girl Scout Troop packages that include Park-Hopper passes, accomodations, meal coupons, and visits to the beach as well as transportation. We can even show you how to include the Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace in Savannah on your way to Walt Disney World.

      Niagara Falls is one of the world’s most popular natural wonders, not to mention one of the world’s top tourist destinations. Over a two day period your Girl Scout Troop would have lots of sights to choose from including:
Butterfly Conservatory
Maid of the Mist
Cave of the Winds
Journey Behind the Falls
IMAX Theater
Skylon Observation Deck
the Whirlpool Aero Car
Ft. Niagara
the Robert Moses Power Plant
Clifton Hill with unbelivable sights and sounds and fun
      On the way to or from your home town your Troop could also navigate the highest locks on the Erie Canal, visit the wonder of the Herschel Carousel Factory, and swim or get soaked at Splash Lagoon. Meals would also be included.

      For Troops with a limited amount of time, our office can create a one-day itinerary to include as many features as possible. Please contact our office for details.

As with all DeBolt Unlimited Girl Scout trips, this tour can be modified or expanded to suit your Troop's interests and preferences. Please contact our office for details.

Chicago is a favorite destination among Girl Scout Troops for several reasons:

A. Reasonable Hotel Rates - Chicago is known for its conventions. However, when there are no conventions in town, rates can drop by more than 60%.

B. Amtrak schedule – Chicago's Union Station is Amtrak's biggest national hub. Their schedule is designed to enable Girl Scout Troops to arrive in Chicago early in the morning, tour all day, spend the night, tour the next day, and return that evening. Sleeping on the train’s comfortable Coach seats in both directions maximizes the time your Girl Scout Troop can spend in Chicago.

C. The City that Works! Everything in Chicago is close, either within walking distance or via a quick bus ride. Small groups can visit all of the attractions without having to pay for their own private vehicle.

D. Unique in the World - Where else in the world can you find the Hemisphere's tallest building with its gravity defying LEDGE, the largest Natural History Museum, unparalled cuisine, a coal mine, bold architecture, the "Rock 'n Roll McDonald's" and the world's largest reflective "bean"?

Three Day Itinerary

Day One - After arriving by motorcoach, plane, or train head for the hemisphere's tallest building (the Willis (formerly Sears)) Tower for a truly awesome view of the city you’re about to discover.

Day Two - After breakfast, Girl Scouts can take a “City Highlights” tour before visiting the Museum of Science and Industry. Scouts will go to Navy Pier and enjoy the many activities concentrated in this unique complex.

Day Three - More highlights today as your Girl Scouts visit the Shedd Aquarium and the Field Museum of Natural History. If time permits, you may have time for some browsing and shopping along the world-famous Magnificent Mile before leaving for home.

Amtrak Two day Special!

Day One - Morning arrival in Chicago. Use your CTA Pass for transportation around Chicago to visit the Willis Tower, Musuem of Science and Industry, Field Musuem, Navy Pier, and much more! This evening take a cruise on Lake Michigan and the Chicago River.

Day Two - Shop all along the Magnificent Mile or visit what you missed the first day. In the evening board Amtrak for the trip home.

Please contact our office for details.

Begin by entering New York by sea, a special DeBolt Unlimited offering. After lunch at South Street Seaport you’ll have time to shop at Macy’s or visit Times Square or Rockefeller Center before your matinee performance.

The afternoon can be spent visiting the Girl Scout National Headquarters, the Museum of Natural History, the United Nations, or just shopping.

Girl Scout Troops will board a replica of the Mayflower to experience firsthand what a three-week transatlantic crossing was like 400 years ago. On the way Girls Scout Troops can stop at the John F. Kennedy Library for some more contemporary inspiration.

Day Four - Girl Scout Troops travel home stopping at Old Sturbridge Village along the way.

Optional Day Five: Girl Scouts can extend their trip an additional day to include both the Northeast and Southeast options on Days Two and Three and coming home on Day Five.
