Where there be Dragons - Global citizenship & leadership programs in the developing world

Who We Are

Dragons Student Travel: Who We AreDragons programs are authentic, rugged and profound student travel adventures that expose the beautiful and complex realities of the countries in which we travel. Featuring extended itineraries, Dragons programs encourage deep immersion into strikingly different physical and cultural landscapes, combining the best in experiential education, travel, service learning, and physically and intellectually challenging experiences.
While Dragons programs vary in their focus—with some trekking and wilderness intensive, others strong on service and development studies, and still others language-oriented—all Dragons journeys are designed above all else to be fun, safe and honest educational experiences.
On ancient maps Dragons were drawn to symbolize the unknown, and to travel beyond the familiar world was to go “where there be dragons.” There are people who live their lives for adventure, exploration and knowledge—people who are willing to venture into the unknown for the sake of discovery. For those people, we offer incredible experiences. We hope you are one of them. Where do you want to go?
