Route Markers

The order of departure from Shri Ramchandra Farm House are as follows:

  1. Justin & Diana (7:40 am)
  2. Kelsey & Joey (7:47 am)
  3. Tiffany & Krista (8:50 am)
  4. Logan & Chris (8:54 am)

Teams must fly to Hong Kong, China. Upon arrival, teams will have to search the waiting Rolls-Royce limousine outside the airport, which will then escort them to The Peninsula Hong Kong, where they will find their next clue.

Choice A: Sam's
Teams would have to travel by taxi to Sam's Tailor to pick up measurements for a suit jacket, then head to Sam's Workshop, where they have to properly cut out six template pieces of a matching design. They then have to deliver a finished suit back to Sam's Tailor to receive their next clue.

Kelsey & Joey, Logan & Chris, and Tiffany & Krista chose this task.

Choice B: Cells
Teams would have to travel by taxi to a marked store on the crowded Apliu Street and search through boxes of used cell phones to find one that turns on. Upon dialing a number displayed on the phone, a message will instruct them to travel to an address on Kweilin Street where they will find their next clue.

Only Justin & Diana chose this task.

Teams must travel by taxi to Hong Kong–Macau Ferry Terminal and take a ferry to Macau. Once in Macau, teams will then travel by taxi to the City of Dreams Dancing Water Theatre, where they will receive their next clue from an actor dressed as Iago.

The team member assigned to perform this Roadblock would have to take part in a performance of The House of Dancing Water, the world's largest water-based stage production. After diving over 30 feet from the central mast-shaped platform into the surrounding pool, they have to search under the water for a golden fish, then swim across the pool to deliver it to a fisherman on a raft in exchange for their next clue. If they can't complete the task before the music stops, they have to wait twenty minutes for the next performance and start over.

The Roadblock performers per team are underlined:

Teams must travel by taxi to Centro Náutico da Praia Grande to check in. For coming in first place, Logan & Chris won a trip for two to Cuzco, Peru, provided by Travelocity.
