Varna, Bulgaria. Photo: shutterstock Since the beginning of the war, the trend has been clear. Israeli tourists are looking for vacations in countries that formally confront Israel less, and more vacations in countries that declared their support for Israel. And us? We responded to them with great love.
And so it turned out that many countries in Western Europe were replaced by tourist destinations that some of us were less familiar with until the war: Greece, Albania, Bulgaria, Slovakia, Montenegro and even Georgia where Israeli tourism has intensified during the war.

The upcoming Passport Magazine - "The Heart of Europe", will be dedicated to the countries of Eastern Europe and the Balkans with everything you wanted to know about hotels, attractions, restaurants, history that takes us to stories thousands of years old, and this is just the beginning.
Passport Magazine "The Heart of Europe" will be published at the end of March 2025.
