Season 1

In the premiere episode, meet the 11 teams who are about to depart on the adventure of a lifetime. Starting at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground, they will cover more than 50,000km, 4 continents, 12 countries and 23 cities, and along the way, they'll confront fears, experience new cultures and make lifelong friends. Who will have the right combination of strategy, strength, skill and teamwork to win the $250,000 prize?

The worldwide adventure continues when most teams struggle to find flights out of Indonesia. One team enquires about a bus off the island, while sparks fly when another couple can't agree on how to get to Vietnam.

Tonight, the race continues as the ten remaining teams seek good fortunes in Hong Kong. After eating their way through thousands of fortune cookies in search of their next clue, teams are faced with the race's only Fast Forward. Will any of them be brave enough to take up the hair-raising challenge? Meanwhile, the relationship between two teams takes a big turn for the worse, while the Chinese zodiac proves too challenging for some teams.

When The Amazing Race Australia continues tonight, the remaining nine teams scale great heights to face their greatest fears in South Africa. While some teams revel in the African traditions, others struggle when it comes time to feed the giraffes. Meanwhile, another team finds themselves on the wrong side of the law, and will Richard and Joey's ruthless determination be their downfall?

In tonight's exciting episode, the teams continue their South African odyssey in the beautiful coastal city of Cape Town. But the high-flying antics quickly come to an end for Chris and Anastasia at the Detour. Has this fiery relationship finally hit rock bottom? The teams put the race into perspective when they visit a local orphanage to deliver some much-needed goods, and will a nasty accident on the last challenge bring the race to an end for one team?

Teams go from the heat of South Africa to the chill of Europe. After enjoying some delicious appelbols, teams train off to become knights and servants for some Czech princesses and damsels before hoping to hit the target and avoid possible elimination.

Teams stay in the Czech Republic as they encounter some icy patches with each other. After introducing their butts to the ice, teams search for suspicious flagged persons before heading to brewery and church. Which teams can skate their way to the top and which teams will need a miracle to stay in the Race?

When The Amazing Race Australia continues tonight, the teams fight fatigue and have to keep racing without a rest stop. While on board a train for Poland, one team is robbed of their money and passports. Is it game over? Then, teams head underground in one of the world's oldest salt mines; while herding sheep proves frustrating for some. And the final challenge will end disastrously for more than one team.

When The Amazing Race Australia continues tonight, the remaining teams depart chilly Europe and the competition heats up in the Middle East. In Israel, they require patience and an eye for detail. And working together as a team takes on a deeper meaning when they are tasked with a challenge to discover how well they know their teammate. Teams face a daunting journey to a desert fortress. And one team won't make it to the pit stop.

The Amazing Race Australia continues tonight through historic Israel. At the site that housed the ancient Dead Sea Scrolls, teams are tested on their knowledge of Hebrew as they decipher their next clue. At the Detour, some teams choose to walk Jesus' final path - the Via Dolorosa - carrying an 80kg crucifix through the streets of Jerusalem. And scaling Jerusalem's old city walls proves a difficult last hurdle.

Tonight, the teams make a mad dash for Sri Lanka to secure a place in the finale. The Detour has some teams acting fishy; while deciding which carriage to ride in on a train trip could prove costly for one team. All teams struggle with their history; but are given the opportunity to make up some lost time at a masked street parade. And a final sewing challenge proves to be a disaster for all.

It's a race to the finish line when The Amazing Race Australia returns home for the winners to be crowned tonight. In Singapore, the teams seek their race riches from a local fortune teller; while a 55 storey tight-rope crossing Detour tests their nerves. Back in Australia, they search Fremantle Prison for their next clue. But the final challenge brings them all unstuck as they struggle to remember the highlights of their epic journey. Only one team will persevere to get to the finish line first and take home the $250,000 prize.
