Yes, you heard it right. The Amazing Race Season 34 Episode 1 is all ready to stream. Amazing Race fans appear to be getting their favorite show back on a more regular basis, with Season 34 airing just days after the interrupted 33rd season ended. If drama occurs, fans will not be able to watch it solely on CBS. The reality competition show first aired in 2001, and contestants are still signing up to compete for the $1 million prize over 20 years later.
The Amazing Race returns in the fall of 2022, promising to be another exciting adventure with new countries and unexpected twists (or lack thereof). And we’ve got everything you need to know about The Amazing Race Season 34, including who’s racing around the world and where they’ll go. The race is divided into legs in which competitors are given clues and must navigate through foreign countries to complete physically and mentally demanding tasks. They could be eliminated if they are the last one to arrive at their final destination for that leg. The final team will earn the seven-figure sum if they can persevere. Here is everything about The Amazing Race Season 34 Episode 1, including its release date, plot, stream guide, and more.

What countries are the racers visiting?
Teams from Amazing Race Season 34 will begin the race outside of the United States. The 12 pairs will fly from Los Angeles to Munich, Germany, on the Titan Airways Boeing 757 charter plane used by the show in season 33. And the competitors will congregate at the starting line in Munich.
The remaining teams will travel to Austria, Italy, France, Spain, and Iceland after running around Germany. The Amazing Race will include a leg in Jordan for the first time in the show’s history, including a visit to the ancient city of Petra. The final three pairs will travel to Nashville for the finale. Season 34 will also not include a single long-standing twist. This time, if a team finishes last, they are automatically eliminated from the race. There will be no Speed Bumps to keep contestants from being eliminated.
