Production edit

Development and filming edit

 
 
The neighborhood of Sarona in Tel Aviv and Tel Yavne in Yavne served as dual starting lines.

This season traversed four continents and ten countries. Much like the previous season, the first leg began with fourteen teams that were split into two groups of seven. Both groups of seven teams would run a leg in Israel resulting in two teams eliminated. Unlike the previous season, both groups of seven teams were aware of each other. While in Vietnam, the normal red and yellow route markers were used, unlike the first season in which the route markers were replaced with yellow and white flags to avoid confusion with the former South Vietnamese national flag, following recent editions of The Amazing Race where the normal red & yellow route markers were used. Similar to last season, teams' overall placements were determined when teams checked-in at an empty Pit Stop mat at the Hedgend Maze in Australia, and teams had to return to Ariel Sharon Park to learn of their final placement.

Darryn Lyons, the mayor of Geelong, Australia at the time of filming, appeared as the Pit Stop greeter during the penultimate leg.[2]

Cast edit

The cast for this season included actor and model Adriano Jauvel and former Hapoel Galil Elyon manager Amit Gal.[3][4]

Leg 1 (Israel) edit

 
Teams visited Yes Planet in Rishon LeZion to complete a Hollywood themed task.
Group A

Airdate: 17 May 2016

Additional tasks
  • At Yarkon Park, teams had to climb up a shaky rope ladder to a giant billboard which held a giant scratch ticket. Teams then had to balance on a pair of pegs that they had to move from slot to slot in order to reach the whole board. Using two giant Shekel coins, teams had to scratch off the board to reveal the message hidden underneath ("The world is waiting for you!") to receive their next clue.
  • At Rothschild Boulevard #1, teams would find a large array of trash bins. Each trash bin had either a bottle or paper that they had to look for, but only some of them were marked with the show logo. If a team found one of the items but it was not marked, they had to properly recycle them in one of the recycling bins, and put the trash back in their original bin. Once the team found either the marked bottle or paper, they could exchange it for the next clue.
  • After the trash task teams received only a piece of music sheet, which they then had to decipher using the help of the locals in order to play the song "Derech HaShalom" by Pe'er Tasi. At the bottom of the sheet teams would find written the numbers "32–34". Combining both informations, teams had to make their way to Derech HaShalom Street #32–34, where Pe'er Tasi in person would hand them their next clue.
  • At Yes Planet's 4DX Cinema in Rishon LeZion, teams had to watch seven scenes of different movies with famous Hollywood actors on them. Then, teams had to correctly pick and arrange stars with the actors names written on them. If the teams correctly guessed all seven stars, they would be allowed in the cinema's VIP room, where they would see the location of the Pit Stop displayed on the screen. If teams were wrong, they would have to eat a full bag of popcorn in the 4DX cinema before trying again.
 
Teams satisfied the requirements of a Lady Gaga impersonator in the Dan Hotel in Tel Aviv.
Group B

Airdate: 22 May 2016

Additional tasks
  • At Yavne's water tower, the second group of teams had to fill a bucket of water and bring it to the top of the tower while sitting on a suspended scaffold and using chains to go up and balance the scaffold. Once at the top, teams would have to fill an empty bucket, which would go down and then would release their car's keys. If teams didn't bring enough water to make the bucket go down, they would have to descend and bring another bucket of water.
  • At the Dan Hotel in Tel Aviv, teams had to choose between two tasks. In the first task, one team member had to sit in a bathtub while the other team member had to fill the tub with ice in order to decrease the temperature to eight degrees celsius. In the second task, teams had to form the figure of two kissing swans using towels per the hotel's standards. Once teams completed either task, they had to bring a tower of coloured chocolates to the room of a Lady Gaga impersonator named "Lady Chacha" and give her a compliment before receiving their next clue.
  • The clue instructed teams to make their way to the "nearby yellow", which teams had to figure out was a Yellow Market inside a Paz Filling Station. Once there, teams would receive a coffee with cream and a basket with their next clue, which instructed teams to convince a local to let them prepare "Ben Gurion Rice" in their house, while using the given oil, cooking pot and ptitim that teams either bought or got from the local. Once cooked, teams would have to take the Ben Gurion Rice to the Ben-Gurion House, where a man would approve or disapprove the meal. If the meal was correctly cooked, teams would receive their next clue.
  • Teams received the instruction to make their way to the next Pit Stop, "the park named after the eleventh Prime Minister of Israel". Teams had to figure out that the largest park in Israel is the Ariel Sharon Park, formerly a waste dump in Tel Aviv.

Leg 2 (Israel → Italy) edit

 
In Piazza del Popolo teams had to impersonate the characters found on the Fontana del Nettuno.

Airdates: 24, 29 & 31 May 2016

This season's first Detour was a choice between בָּשָׂר (Basar – Meat) or חלב (Halav – Dairy). In Meat, teams had to make their way to Antica Norcineria Viola, where they had to taste and distinguish nine different varieties of salami, and then correctly label the salamis located on a stall outside the store to receive their next clue. In Dairy, teams had to make their way to Beppe e i Suoi Formaggi cheese store and then proceed to grate at least 1.5 kilograms (3.3 lb) of parmesan cheese using a small circular grater to receive their next clue. Teams found the U-turn reveal board on a nearby park.

Additional tasks
  • After arriving in Rome, teams had to make their way to the parking lot C of Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport and find Maurizzio, who would hand them their car keys and the next clue. In their clue, teams received an incomplete sticker of the Vitruvian Man by Leonardo da Vinci, which they had to use to find the other part of the sticker located on the rear windshield of their car.
  • At Ristorante Antico Casale La Carovana, teams had to retrieve different kinds of pasta with a large spoon from a boiling cooking pot and then search in the hot pasta for sixteen letters. Then, using some of the letters, teams had to find a word related to the Italian cuisine, which was Parmegiano to receive their next clue. Before departing, teams had to vote for the team they wanted to U-Turn.
  • After the Detour, teams had to find out who the God of the sea is in the Roman Mythology, Neptune. After figuring it out, teams had to make their way to Piazza del Popolo and find the next clue at Neptune's Fountain. For their next task, teams had to dress up as the figures on the fountain, Neptune and his trident, accompanied by two tritons. Teams had to don costumes and paint their faces, neck, legs and arms, but since the fountain has three characters, they had to convince a local to dress up as one of the characters. Teams then had to earn ten Euros and give the money to the Neptune impersonator to receive their next clue.
  • The clue teams received instructed them to go to where the "white smoke can be seen", and they had to figure out their next destination was the intersection of Piazza Pia and Via della Conciliazione, from which St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican City can be seen. There, both team members had to stack bottle crates, while one of them was standing on top of the crates, until that person could reach a tiramisu hanging six meters above the ground to receive two espressos, a tiramisu and their next clue.
  • At the Sant'Agnese in Agone Church, teams had to find a clue outside of the church, which instructed them to look for people using Italian fashion brands and then take a selfie with the brand's logo. Once teams had taken five pictures, they could exchange them with a model named Naomi for their next clue.
  • At the Pizzeria Disco Volante, teams were shown how to prepare a pizza margherita. Then, teams had to pick one of several pizza dough balls, and if the dough wasn't dyed inside, teams would have to prepare a pizza using pomodoro, mozzarella and fresh basil. If the dough had red dye inside, teams had to show it to the cook, who would direct them to Piazza Regina Margherita, where they would find an impersonator of Margherita of Savoy, who would hand them their next clue in exchange for the team's prepared pizzas.
  • At the Colosseum, teams had to correctly move one of the large matches in order to fix the equation written in Roman numerals. The original equation was "VI – IV = IX" and they had to come up with the equation "VI + IV = X", so they had to change the sign using the "I" in the original result. Once teams came up with the correct solution, they could run to the Pit Stop.

Leg 3 (Italy) edit

 
In the town of Sutri teams participated in the medieval tradition of flag throwing.

Airdates: 5, 7 & 14 June 2016

For this season's first Double Battle, one team member from each team had to wear a Roman gladiator costume which left him blindfolded. Then, the two gladiators from different teams would have to face off inside of a large circle at the Roman Amphitheatre of Sutri with the objective of catching the other one with a net. To do so, the non-blindfolded team member would have to direct their partner when and where to throw the net. If one of the gladiators walked outside the marked circle, the point would go to the other team. Once a team had won two battles, they would receive their next clue. The team that lost the final Double Battle had to wait out a 15-minute penalty. After completing the Double Battle, teams would have to vote for the team they wanted to Yield.

In this season's first Roadblock, one team member had to recite sonnets in Italian and give different gifts (chocolates, roses, rings, etc.) to ten locals, who would have to give a cheek kiss to the racer, at Santa Maria in Trastevere. Once racers received ten kisses from ten different people, a Giacomo Casanova impersonator would hand them their next clue.

Additional tasks
  • At the Circuito internazionale di Viterbo, both team members had to don overalls, and one of them had to drive in a kart for two laps around the circuit. After completing one lap, the other team member would have to change one of the kart tires before the driving team member could complete the other lap. If teams completed both laps in under 13 minutes, they would receive their next clue, otherwise they would have to try again.
  • At Piazza del Comune, teams had to learn and perform a flag throwing choreography to the satisfaction of the lead flagman to receive their next clue.
  • At the alleys of Sutri, teams had to take two baskets with fresh laundry and hang it from two different balconies that faced each other, one belonging to the Capulet family and the other belonging to the Montague family (named after the families from Romeo and Juliet). Clothes sized S and M belonged to the Capulet house and sizes L and XL belonged to the Montague house, so if one team member had the clothes belonging to the other house they would have to throw it to the other balcony. Once teams found the only piece of clothing sized XXXL, they could exchange it with the Mamma for their next clue.
  • At Giuseppe's Olive Plantation, teams had to transport 5 kilograms of olive from one bucket at the bottom of a hill to the one in the top of the hill using their hands with olives while walking barefoot over an oily plastic carpet to receive their next clue from Giuseppe.
  • At Piazza Navona, teams had to play the role of a paparazzi by finding an Israeli celebrity hiding anywhere in the Piazza and taking multiple pictures of him. Teams had to figure out that the celebrity was in fact HaMerotz LaMillion 4 contestant Tom Baum (from Tom & Uriel), who was drinking a coffee in one of the Piazza's cafés. Teams then had to show the pictures to Tom, who would give them the next clue.
  • At Pincio Park on Pincian Hill, teams would discover if they were Yielded before signing up on a board in the order they arrived at the park. The next morning, teams had to return to the park and properly arrange the planets in the Solar System from closest to farthest to the Sun (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto). Once teams thought that their order was correct, they had to call a Galileo Galilei impersonator, who would hand them their next clue. If the order was incorrect, teams would have to pick a paper containing one of two penalty tasks, that they would have to complete before trying again. The first penalty task consisted of one team member moving two buckets with water for thirty seconds without stopping, one to the front and one to the back, in order to create centrifugal force. The other task consisted of one team member holding a Sun model, and the other one holding an Earth model. The person holding the Earth model would have to run around the person with the Sun model for six minutes and five seconds simulating the Earth's orbit.
  • At the Transmission Music Store, teams would have to find the only gramophone record belonging to an Italian singer in the whole store, Toto Cutugno's "L'Italiano", which they could exchange with the store manager for their next clue.
Additional note
  • At the Pit Stop in Terrazza del Pincio, the Yielded teams had to wait their 15-minute penalty before being allowed to check-in.

Leg 4 (Italy → Romania) edit

 
At Casa Capșa in Bucharest, teams encountered a Double Battle that involved authentic Romanian dishes.

Airdates: 20, 27 & 28 June 2016

This leg's Detour was a choice between התעמלות אומנותית (Gymnastics) or אתלטיקה קלה (Athletics). In Gymnastics, both team members had to learn a gymnastics routine using one hula hoop each. Then, they had to perform the routine in front of three judges and earn a score of seven or higher from all three judges to receive their next clue. In Athletics, one team member had to complete a hurdling course without touching any of the hurdles, and team member had to jump 1.20 metres (3.9 ft) on a high jump structure to receive their next clue.

In this leg's Roadblock, one team member had to attach magnets onto different parts of their body and search for the piece of metal that was not magnetized, which was an object made of gold that teams could exchange for the next clue.

For this leg's Double Battle, one member of each team had to bet on how many pieces of Romanian food (which included Mămăligă, Papanași and Mititei) they wanted their partner to eat. The last team member to say a number would make their partner eat that amount of food in five minutes. A team earned a point in any of two cases, first, if the team member eating ate all the food within the given time, or if the person eating was from the other team and couldn't eat the food in the time. The first team to reach two points would receive their next clue and win the battle. The team that lost the final Double Battle had to wait out a 15-minute penalty.

Additional tasks
  • At Lipscani street, teams had to convince a local to take part as a guest in a talk show hosted by one of the racers with the other racer also as a guest. While the host asked personal questions to the local, the other racer would have to convince the local to let them rub a lemon on their elbows, apply avocado onto their skin, and put a bra on their head. If the local accepted all these activities, teams would receive their next clue.
  • At Cantacuzino Castle, teams were welcomed by a Dracula impersonator, who guided them to a room without light and filled with scary stuff like spider webs, a coffin, a stuffed fox, etc. Teams had to search inside the room within 10 minutes for their clue, which was hanging from the ceiling. If teams ran out of time, they would have to wait for their next turn and try again.
  • At Artmark Galerie in Bucharest, teams found out if they were Yielded and would sign up for a departure time next morning. The next day, teams had to go to Artizanat București and search in the store's showcases for something distinctive, which was the image of a specific castle. Then, they had to return to the Artmark Galerie and search among plenty of wax sealed letters for the one with a seal that depicted the same castle that they saw in the showcases.
  • At the Brașov Olympic Ice Rink, teams had to ice skate inside the rink and match five different couples. On one side of the rink were the guys holding a pot inside a purse, while on the other side were the girls holding the pot's cover also inside a purse. To make a couple match, each team member had to take a person of opposite sex and match both the pot and the cover. Once teams matched all five couples, they would receive their next clue.
  • At Piața Sfatului, teams had to watch a traditional Romanian group dance. At one point in the routine, the female dancers would uncover letters attached to their heads that formed the Pit Stop's location: "Brașov Citadel". Before checking in, the Yielded teams would have to wait their 15-minutes penalty.
