Teams must travel to Alleppey and find the Sports Field by the Pallathuruthy bridge to find their next clue.

The Fast Forward instructions were given to teams after finding their clue on National Highway 47. The instructions for the Fast Forward are unknown as no teams were shown preforming the task.

"Who can put up a lot of bull?"

The team member assigned to perform this Roadblock had to take part in bull racing. They must hang onto a harness hooked up to two bulls and would have to continue holding on while the bulls dragged them through the mud course the length of a football field. If they did not let go at any point, they would receive their next clue.

The Roadblock performers per team are underlined:

Teams must make their way to Beach Road and find their route marker.

Choice A: Baskets
Teams must load 10 live chickens into baskets and then attach those to a bicycle-powered wagon. They would have to pedal across town to find a farm that was encircled on a map. After delivering their 10 chickens, they would get their next clue.

Only Reichen & Chip chose this task.

Choice B: Trunks
Teams would have to load two coir bales onto an elephant and deliver them to a coir shop encircled on a map. After delivering their bales, they would get their next clue.

David & Jeff, Jon & Al, Kelly & Jon, Millie & Chuck, and Tian & Jaree chose this task.
