Peter Wells, CEO of DragonSlayer, a one-of-a-kind app that helps you curate unique travel experiences, wants us to remember what it felt like to travel. He wants us to remember hopping on a plane and flying off to our favorite vacation destination. He wants us to remember because those times arent’s far away from returning.

Created less than a year ago, DragonSlayer’s original purpose was to consolidate these journeys. Not only will it help you climb Mt. Killamanjaro (for example), DragonSlayer will find the best outfitter to assist you; doing the homework and making the trip that much easier and engaging. When asked about the title Peter jokes, “obviously, I was watching a bunch of Game of Thrones,” adding, “the dragon we’re slaying is the Coronavirus by helping people navigate the world.”

SAFE-T

One of DragonSlayer’s most notable features is called SAFE-T (Smart Analytics For Educating Travelers), which gives travelers with DragonSlayer real-time info on countries that are reopening and if open, where the safest places to go are located. Even though there are be a lot of us who are thinking, “until there is a vaccine, I’m not traveling,” Peter firmly believes that there are people who are yearning for getaways now more than ever; and they’re looking to do it as safely as possible.
