I hope that there is a season with people of all ages - perhaps an age range of about 13-70? What do you guys think? ???

Haha like The AMAZING Race 31: Young V Old! :funny:

Let's adjust that to 19-70. Would love to have a race with a lot of diversity. European-American, Asian-American, African-American, Hispanic-American and Oceanian/Pacific Islander-American teams.

I'd love to see The AMAZING Race: Kids Edition!

It doesn't have to go around the world. It could stay in America, or even in just one city!

What is it with the Amazing Race and Central/Eastern Europe. If you look back it works out quite strangely. Up until S10 there was nothing except S6's visit to Budapest. But then from S10 to S15 was where Tar found its love for the region. It visited, Ukraine, Poland, Lithuania, Croatia, Romania, Estonia and Czech Republic. But after that it stopped. After this we've only had 2 visits to Poland.

I mean there are some absolutly spectacular cities here that i'd love to see revisited including, Prague, Budapest, Dubrovnik, Tallinn, & Transylvania. But also new places like Česky Krumlov, Brno, Cluj, Split, Zagreb and Hvar. Not only this but there are numerous other countries that i think are worthy of a visit. These are Slovakia, Slovenia, Latvia & Bulgaria. But i really want a visit to Montenegro. I mean would it hurt tar to do a double leg in say Croatia/Montenegro or Prague/Česky Krumlov or Latvia/Lithuania.

So Tar if you're reading, give Western Europe a break  :luvya:

P.S, Visit Ireland though!

Welcome to RFF. TAR has visited Japan 7 times (with the most recent coming in Season 26 with 2 legs.) Kyoto and Nara HAVE NOT been visited, however because it has only been 3 seasons since TAR visited Japan last, I think u might have to wait a little longer for those cities.

As for China, that country has been visited 13 times, with 20 pit stops. I agree that Western Cities in China need to be visited, instead of Beijing, Shanghai, etc every time. China's last visit was in Season 28 and was visited also in 27. But, will it be featured in TAR30? Big question.

Here are my thoughts for TAR30

1 leg in Canada. Time to revisit and to have a Pit Stop.

Then, off to Europe. No UK, France or Germany. Just Ireland (2 legs), Czech Republic, Belgium and Portugal. 6 legs down.

No Africa. When it gets a visit in TAR31, no Morocco please. Instead go to South Africa for 2 legs and then Angola (new country) for 1 leg.

Off to Asia. They will not be visiting India, China or Japan. Instead, they will be going to Sri Lanka and Cambodia (2 legs)

Down to Oceania down for 2 legs. Easy, 2 legs in Australia.

For the 12th leg, stop in Guadalajara (Mexico), do a few tasks and then have your finish line in Dallas, Texas.

South America doesn't get a visit this time, but for TAR31, no visiting Brazil, Argentina and Chile. Instead, go to Peru, Uruguay and Bolivia.

Hope u enjoyed

Umm there is no problem...

But I would love to see a few places visited. London is a fantastic city so I wouldn't mind another visit but only if if went South halfway through. To Leeds Castle, Hampton Court Palace, Canterbury or Brighton. Stratford Upon Avon would be great for a Shakespeare themed detour. Cornwall is a beautiful location providing excellent scenery for the race. Bath is also a great place. Up North is York and Rural Yorkshire along with the Lake District which is stunning! In Scotland I wouldn't be upset if they visited Edinburgh, with more of a focus in the city centre. The Isle of Skye and of coarse Lodh Ness are beautiful.

But the Emerald Isle (Ireland) is definitely an option, Dublin is a great city. I've heard that Cork and the southern Coast are beautiful and of coarse Galway. But the race could also visit the crown dependencies of Guernsey and Jersey!

England has been visited too many times, however I like the idea of visiting Canterbury, Brighton and Cornwall. Scotland has been visited only 3 times out of the 2 times that TAR has visited the UK. However, I would like to see Glasgow featured, instead of Edinburgh. IRELAND IS AMAZING!!!!! I would also like to see Guernsey and Jersey featured in one leg.

The Thing is there isn't much in Glasgow, it's great for nightlife but it isn't very pretty or historic.
