From the landing zone on São Conrado Beach, Teams had to make their way to the bus station in Rio. From there, they had to figure out how to get to Iguaçu Falls. The first to arrive at the station were the Fast Forward winners, Shola & Doyin. Tara & Wil and Chris & Alex arrived shortly after them. The three lead Teams got on the first bus, which took a direct route, getting them to Iguaçu twenty-two hours later.
On the second bus were Cyndi & Russell, Oswald & Danny, and Mary & Peach. ( Oswald on overcoming challenges) Still on their way to the station were Hope & Norm, Blake & Paige, Peggy & Claire and Gary & Dave. As these last Teams rushed toward the station, Blake noted to his sister, "I think this is going to be the most critical moment of the race." ( Mary & Peach discuss their bus ride)
Peggy & Claire and Blake & Paige were next to show up at the bus station. Blake became horrified when he realized he had left his wallet in their taxi. Despondent, he said, "I should just go home." Meanwhile, Peggy & Claire got on a bus to São Paulo. From there, they would take a second bus to Iguaçu. Gary & Dave boarded a different bus to São Paulo that would arrive in time for them to get on the same connecting bus as the Gutsy Grannies.
Without any cash to pay for tickets, Blake & Paige were forced to beg for bus money. After only about five minutes, they were able to get enough money for a bus. Behind them, Hope & Norm arrived. Their driver had taken a circuitous route to the station, putting them in last place. The two Teams boarded the final bus to Iguaçu.
