Disney World Finish = :hearts: (though they would have to rent out the entire theme park, which would probably cost a fortune...)

They didn't do that for Coney Island (or whatever that theme park was) for TAR21
Finish line costs at an entire Disneyworld area would be more than 5X higher than having a poster at a boardwalk. Only the Epcot would be rented out, Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Cars Land, etc. can stay open. ;)

I like how I've made a list of places I want the show to visit and it's gone to some of them e.g. Chateau de Villandry, Griffith Observatory.


Maybe they'll go to the Alhambra or Auditorio de Tenerife sometime. Anywhere in Andorra, Guggenheim in Bilbao, Kew Botanical Gardens, Hatfield House, Underground City in Beijing...

I don't think this has been mentioned in this thread... perhaps at all, but I want the race to go to somewhere in Turkey NOT near Istanbul or Ankara.

A region I found quite unique and paradoxical is on the far and I mean further outskirts of Kayseri, CAPPADOCIA. In well-known Gorëme, teams could self-drive to the rock houses to find their next clue near one of the doorfronts, visit the fairy chimneys (inflate & ride blimp and count the number of rock formations in the flagged area) and Ihlara Valley in Güzelyurt (rappel down valley to a rock cut church to find a stele with their next clue and bring themselves back up with the message without using the rappelling devices) for a Detour, and better yet, they could visit Derinkuyu Underground City bringing a torch OR Uçhisar Castle finding Phil in one of many caverns as the Pit Stop "task"! :hearts:

There wasn't time I don't think. TAR can do a "created" race most anywhere though.

Just a thought :P I believe they had gone to the Rakaia Gorge for a task? They may of gone close to the CBD as a tribute to the victims of the 2011 Earthquake but I'm not sure.
