They like us the most: even though the residents here are Muslim

Montenegro has become one of the favorite countries of the Israelis in recent times, when in 2025 about 200 thousand travelers from the country traveled there. Despite this, it also has quite a few people who like our presence less.

In the new episode of the race for a million that will be broadcast today (Tuesday, 21:30), the second group will be launched, which will start its journey in Albania. In recent years, it too has become a country that quite a few Israelis fly to, and in 2025 about 100,000 travelers from the country will land there. Unlike Montenegro, Albania is a country that loves us very much – and is not ashamed to say so all the time.

A stroll through the streets of Tirana, the capital of Albania, quickly reveals its huge potential: it is still authentic (for better or for worse), without McDonald’s, without very successful roads, but with very cheap prices (4 NIS in the beer index, 20 NIS for a pizza tray, 40 NIS for a half-hour taxi ride), very nice people and a different culture than you will meet in classical Europe.
