Route Markers[]

The order of departure from Goanikontes Oasis are as follows:

Jelani & Jenny and Mike & Rochelle's departure times were not shown on-screen.

Teams must fly to Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Upon arrival, teams must make their way to Jagershuis in Ouderkerk aan de Amstel, where they would find their next clue, one of which conceals a Date Night ticket.

"Who has a nice set of klompen?"

The team member assigned to perform this Roadblock must search a room full of hundreds of traditional Dutch clogs known as a klompen for one klomp that perfectly matched a display to complete the pair. Once they have presented the correct missing pair to the cobbler, he would give them their next clue.

The Roadblock performers per team are underlined:

Teams must ride a bicycle along the Amstel river, crossing the river via the Pontveer ferryboat, to the Munttoren in Amsterdam, where they would find their next clue.

Choice A: Soak
Teams must ride their bicycle to Reguliersgracht, where they must search for a series of pictograph rebus signs pasted on the canal's walls, while operating a hot tub-boat known as a "HotTug". Once back at the dock, they must write their decoded word ("ice skating rink") on a small whiteboard to receive their next clue.

Hayley & Blair, Jelani & Jenny, and Laura & Tyler chose this task.

Choice B: Shuffle
Teams must ride their bicycle to Felix Meritis, where they must score a take turns playing a game of sjoelen, a Dutch variation of table shuffleboard. If they can score a combined total of at least 51 points on the same turn, they would receive their next clue.

Matt & Ashley and Mike & Rochelle chose this task.

Teams must ride their bicycle to the Museumplein ice skating rink to check in.

For coming in first place, Laura & Tyler won a trip for two to Seoul, South Korea, provided by Travelocity.

For winning the Date Night ticket, Jelani & Jenny won a romantic evening during the Pit Stop.

For coming in last place, Matt & Ashley will have to perform a Speed Bump at some point during the next leg of the race.
