What is the evidence for 2 Botswana legs? Why not an extended pit stop in exotic Africa? I think that would be a perfect design, with just one leg in Botswana a distinct possibility.

We will have 6 legs completed after the first and maybe only leg in Botswana. There is still Switzerland, Berlin, Edinburgh, Belfast and maybe London before the finale reaches Washington DC

I stand corrected and I did read that post in the Media thread when it came out, so mea culpa. However, the last word is not in until that episode is over. We'll see where the pit stop of that episode is (although the chances are that it was in Botswana).

Still no Fast Forward :'(

It seems like when they immediately get to Gaborone (airport hub of Botswana), they're signing up for charter flights to a national reserve... however, the teams are equalized  since in Joey & Meghan's flight scene, you can see Max & Katie and Caroline & Jennifer behind them. In Mona & Beth's charter scene, you can also see Chuck's mullet.

In cap 24, Bates & Anthony are showing off a Detour clue running with tribal people with bows & arrows. Surely one of the Detour choices?

In Joey's scorpion scene, it's definitely a Roadblock as you can see him holding the red clue while reading the instructions. Scorpion holding and consuming prior to hunting them? ???

The hilarious tribals in the cargo might be the route info task after landing at the tribal reserve's nearest airfield. This is what I think:

After teams arrive at the tribal reserve, they have to take 3 or 4 tribal people back to their camp via Ford Escape. When arriving at the camp with the tribesmen, they will get their next clue by one of them revealing a Detour or Roadblock clue.

Of course, this is purely speculation. Exact location is unknown, but it is at a sandy-ish and open area with dry grassland and minimal vegetation.

Also, additional info: The nearest airport shown on Google Maps is Hukuntsi Airport, near Central Kalahari Reserve.

Now let's hope there will be another Brian & Greg vs Ray & Deana Pit Stop race reenacted with Bates & Anthony and Chuck & Wynona! :colors

Don't you think Chuck & Wynona are a little bit off for a reenactment of Ray & Deana? :lol: A better representation could be Joey & Meghan!

Now let's get back on topic before this turns into a thread-wide discussion :lol:

Rachel,

We have sightings of teams landing in Maun, Botswana nonstop from Johannesburg. Maun is a different place than Gaborone although both would have small airplanes like the ones shown in the preview to take teams out into the bush.

Three possible options for World Race Productions were:
Moremi Game Reserve, a world class game reserve, is only 80 km away, It offers undisturbed game viewing in varies woodland plains environments.
Afro Trek Safaris operates from Maun.
Bush Camp Safaris is another mobile safari company.
