Last year, the season has a special twist to it with it taking place entirely down under due to Covid restrictions.
The teams at Eureka and 10 both wanted to make the most of the rare opportunity that they got to do a different type of race.
The team also wanted to take this opportunity to embrace Australian culture and to showcase the country.
“Over the last few years, people have gone overseas for their adventures, and it enabled us to shine a spotlight on Australia and look for places and people that were so exotic and unusual.”
“When you travel internationally you tend to parachute in and only see the culture in that area, where in Australia we had to look, but we didn’t have to look far to find the most amazing experiences and people,” said head of entertainment Sophia Mogford about bringing together the most difficult The Amazing Race Australia to date.
