Episode 5: Tensions mounted as the Teams raced from Namibia to Bangkok, Thailand. Blake and Wil argued over how to play the game fairly, everyone found it difficult to get around in the bustle and confusion of Bangkok, and those who performed the Roadblock had to creep through a cave teeming with bats and roaches. Delayed when they couldn't find the right water taxi in Bangkok, ordained ministers and married parents Cyndi & Russell were last to arrive at the Pit Stop in Ampawa, Thailand, and became the fifth Team eliminated from THE AMAZING RACE.

Episode 4: Teams raced from Cape Town, South Africa to Namibia, where they sandboarded down the Matterhorn, a giant sand dune, in the Detour. Next, they hit the Roadblock, which required one member of each Team to drive hard bargains at a local marketplace and amass a collection of carved wooden African animals. Oswald and Danny took the "easy" way out by finding the Fast Forward in a hotel swimming pool, and were first to check in at the Pit Stop at Amani Lodge, Namibia. Shola & Doyin got stuck in the sand and were last to check in, thus they were the next Team eliminated from THE AMAZING RACE.

Episode 3: Leaving their lush jungle camp at Iguaçu Falls, Brazil, the Teams flew to South Africa in search of Nelson Mandela's former cell. After either dancing for tips or delivering fish at the Detour, Teams hit the Roadblock, which required participants to drink a bitter brew. Delayed by a roundabout flight to Cape Town via New York City, Gutsy Grannies Peggy & Claire arrived last at the winery Pit Stop and were the third Team eliminated from THE AMAZING RACE.

Episode 2: The ten Teams set out for a Rio de Janeiro samba club, then hang glided down to São Conrado Beach for the Detour. Shola & Doyin played volleyball to win the Fast Forward, then headed straight for the Pit Stop at Iguaçu Falls, Brazil. The other Teams hit the Roadblock at Iguazu and took a speedboat ride through the falls. Trailing Team Blake & Paige found a map, giving them the edge over Hope & Norm. Hope & Norm arrived last and were the second Team eliminated from THE AMAZING RACE.

Episode 1: From the starting line in Pahrump, Nevada, the eleven Teams drove to Las Vegas, then flew down to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where they visited Christ the Redeemer, rappelled down the sheer face of Sugar Loaf, and wound up on a yacht in Rio's Guanabara Bay. Several Teams tussled at a tour counter, the Gutsy Grannies met the Girl from Ipanema, and mother-and-daughter Team Deidre & Hillary checked in last, making them the first Team eliminated from THE AMAZING RACE.
