The Dragon House is nearing the end of its second season, but fans of the HBO series can get their fantasy fix with a new escapade featuring mythical beasts.
Indonesia Ta'aktana Beach Resort has unveiled an off-site excursion that will make you feel like you're stepping into the Game of Thrones prequel. The luxury waterfront property is located in the country's Lesser Sunda Islands, home to Komodo National ParkThis UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the few places in the world where travelers can see Komodo dragons in the wild. However, these creatures aren't fictional flying creatures like Syrax or Seasmoke, so don't expect to hone your riding skills.

Passengers who book the full-day island-hopping adventure will board a luxurious private boat that can accommodate up to eight people. The trip includes stops at several nearby attractions, including the picturesque Pink Beach on Padar Island, known for its colorful coastline. The trip also includes snorkeling at Manta Point and Kanawa Island, both of which are teeming with marine life and coral reefs.
Of course, just like in the series, the majestic Komodo dragons are the real stars. The tour includes a tour of the national park led by an expert ranger. Here, you can meet the endangered species in their natural habitat. Don’t worry, they’re only 10 feet long and weigh up to 300 pounds, so they’re far less intimidating than Vhagar. The day ends with a visit to Kalong Island to watch a breathtaking sunset.
The experience, which can be booked through Ta'aktana, costs around $5,852 for a private cruise. The fare includes entrance to Komodo National Park, lunch, snacks, snorkeling gear and refreshments, not including beer or other alcoholic beverages.
The 70-room Labuan Bajo resort, which opened on May 31, is part of Marriott International’s Luxury Collection portfolio. The hotel itself features 45 suites, 25 villas, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, a fitness center, and a spa. Its largest (and most lavish) accommodation is a massive 5,000-square-foot villa dubbed the Mansion, with 24-hour butler service, three bedrooms, and three bathrooms. The property also has three on-site restaurants, a coffee roastery, a kids’ club, and even a chapel where guests can get married. Hey, it’s bound to be better than any wedding in Westeros.
