New countries due for an Amazing visit
tarflyonthewall:
Laos is pretty easy to get to. There are multiple daily flights from Bangkok to Vientiane, and Bangkok is one of the biggest hubs in Asia with many, many routes in and out. And that's before you add in flights from other hubs like Singapore, Sydney, and Hong Kong. And it's not like they can't use charter flights like they have so many times before.

The capital, Luanda, has made a huge turnaround, and I imagine the Race will capitalize on opportunities to showcase safe travel on the African continent as it has done so many times in the past.

Agreed. They've really avoided repeating African countries for some reason and I think their next logical choice would have to be this or Kenya. Or perhaps Uganda? (Yes, I know they've hit Morocco, South Africa, and Tanzania twice each, but it's hardly on the level of some of the Asian and European nations.)
--- Quote ---And I agree that they should take a stop in the South Pacific, but maybe somewhere we haven't seen on Survivor... Marshall Islands, for example.

If anywhere in the South Pacific is (1) unvisited by Survivor and (2) likely to turn up on TAR, I'd say Noumea. It's one of the few places in the South Pacific where English isn't spoken (New Caledonia is a French dependency, for the moment at least), and it's safe enough that the Aussie version of The Mole filmed an entire season there. As long as they don't stray too far north, they should be fine.

My wishlist: Denmark, Paraguay, Indonesia (for obvious reasons :-[), Uzbekistan, Rwanda, Solomon Islands, Jordan.
I'm not sure if Uzbekistan is still in the Travel Advisory list, though. If yes then maybe Tajikistan?
DavidJunior:
Israel is definitely safer than people think (or at least our Dept. of Safety thinks)
I went there in March and it was completely safe to travel through.
This Israeli-Palestinian border is very open as well.
Production would only have minor problems with Bethlehem (avoidable), and getting up to the Dome of the Rock (avoidable too, but still would be a really really cool place for at least a clue)
Pit stop at Masada?
Then hop the border into Jordan (easier to connect to Asia from Jordan)
