''The Amazing Race'' is a [[reality television]] show created by [[Bertram van Munster]] and [[Elise Doganieri]], and hosted by [[Phil Keoghan]]. The series follows teams of two competing in a race around the world.<ref name="Format">{{cite press release |title=The Amazing Race |date=August 1, 2023 |publisher=Paramount Press Express |url=https://www.paramountpressexpress.com/cbs-entertainment/shows/the-amazing-race/about/ |access-date=July 4, 2025 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230810093416/https://www.paramountpressexpress.com/cbs-entertainment/shows/the-amazing-race/about/ |archive-date=August 10, 2023 |agency=[[CBS Productions]]}}</ref> Each leg of the race requires teams to deduce clues, navigate foreign environments, interact with locals, perform physical and mental challenges, and travel on a limited budget provided by the show. At each stop during the leg, teams receive clues inside sealed envelopes, which fall into one of these categories:
* '''Route Info:''' These are simple instructions that teams must follow before they can receive their next clue.
* '''Detour:''' A Detour is a choice between two tasks. Teams may choose either task and switch tasks if they find one option too difficult. There is usually one Detour present on each leg.
* '''Roadblock:''' A Roadblock is a task that only one team member can complete. Teams must choose which member will complete the task based on a brief clue they receive before fully learning the details of the task. There is usually one Roadblock present on each leg.
* '''Fast Forward:''' A Fast Forward is a task that only one team may complete, which allows that team to skip all remaining tasks on the leg and go directly to the next Pit Stop. Teams may only claim one Fast Forward during the entire race.
Most teams who arrive last at the Pit Stop of each leg are progressively eliminated, while the first team to arrive at the finish line in the final episode wins the grand prize of US$1,000,000.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Castro |first=Adam-Troy |title=My Ox Is Broken! |publisher=[[BenBella Books]] |year=2006 |isbn=978-1-932100-91-4 |pages=15–20}}</ref>

;Episode summary
*Teams set off from Dodger Stadium with instructions to fly to Milan, Italy. Once there, teams had to travel to the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, where they had to search the  complex for tickets on one of three charter buses leaving the next day for an unknown destination (Cortina d'Ampezzo in the [[Dolomite Mountains]]).
*At the [[Basilica Minore dei Santi Filippo e Giacomo|Church of St. Filippo and Giacomo]], teams had to follow a marked path to find their next clue, which directed them to the Cinque Torri. There, teams had to ride a [[ski lift]] to the top and find their next clue on the mountain.
*{{TAR clue|Fast Forward|Snowshoe Hike}} This season's first Fast Forward required one team to find a field on Passo Giau, put on [[snowshoe]]s, and trek to the top of a snowy hill. Monica and Sheree won the Fast Forward.
*{{TAR clue|Detour|Search|Rescue}} This season's first Detour was a choice between <u>Search</u> or <u>Rescue</u>. In <u>Search</u>, teams would have had to use a locator [[beacon]] to find a beeper hidden somewhere in the snow, and then they'd have searched for a set of keys for a [[snowmobile]] that they could have driven to their next clue. In <u>Rescue</u>, teams crossed a traditional alpine rescue bridge of four steel cables. They then had to use a [[zipline]] to travel across the ravine in order to receive their next clue. All teams chose <u>Rescue</u>.
*After the Detour, teams had to ride the ski lift back down to the lodge and then travel to the Pit Stop: the Hotel Lajadira.

;Episode summary
*At the start of this leg, teams traveled to the Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park, where they observed a traditional [[Indigenous Australians|Aboriginal]] ceremony. After the ceremony, teams were presented with their next clue, which directed them to the General Aviation Terminal at Cairns Airport.
*{{TAR clue|Detour|Wing It|Wander It}} This season's final Detour was a choice between <u>Wing It</u> or <u>Wander It</u>. In <u>Wing It</u>, teams had to [[skydiving|skydive]] in tandem with an instructor in order to retrieve their next clue at the landing zone. In <u>Wander It</u>, teams would have had to drive to a [[mangrove]] forest, find a boat, and then navigate out of the forest to the skydive landing zone in order to retrieve their next clue. All teams chose <u>Wing It</u>.
*Teams were then instructed to fly to the [[Hawaii (island)|Big Island]] of Hawaii. Once there, teams had to drive to the [[Extreme points of the United States|southernmost point of the United States]] – Kaulana Bay – in order to find their next clue.
*{{TAR clue|Roadblock|Who is a strong swimmer and good with a hammer?}} In this season's final Roadblock, one team member had to swim out to a floating [[tiki]] head and then dive down to retrieve a large stone from the ocean floor. They then had to carry it back to the beach and smash it open using an assortment of tools in order to find the clue inside.
*After the Roadblock, teams had to travel to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, where they followed a path over a bed of volcanic rock to their next clue, which instructed them to fly to Phoenix, Arizona. Once there, teams had to find their next clue at the anchor of the [[USS Arizona (BB-39)|USS ''Arizona'']] at the ''Arizona'' Memorial. Teams were then instructed to travel to Sun Devil Stadium, where they had to solve a riddle in order to locate a specific seat where they found their final clue, which directed them to the finish line at Papago Park.
;Additional note
*David and Jeff, thinking they could get a faster flight to Hawaii through [[Sydney]], were stranded in the [[Sydney Airport]] for so long that by the time they finally arrived in Hawaii, they received notification that the other teams had already crossed the finish line in Phoenix.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Reichen And Chip: 'Race' Winners |url=https://www.cbsnews.com/news/reichen-and-chip-race-winners/ |access-date=2022-12-18 |website=www.cbsnews.com |date=22 August 2003 |language=en-US |archive-date=September 26, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240926133449/https://www.cbsnews.com/news/reichen-and-chip-race-winners/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
