I love your route but I would consider having 2 legs in Australia, 2 legs in Ecuador with the other one being in the Galapagos Islands. Only 1 leg in Brunei.

Here's another one I made. Honestly probably not my best route, and only one new country, but I was trying to be more realistic because I know the race won't go to a bajillion new countries, so I also threw in some undervisited countries/locales.

Graffiti Roadblock at Hosier Lane
If they film in Melbourne, Grand Final Week (September 25-30), they need to be VERY careful, as many people will be out and about (including me), so spoilers! Also, it would be just crazy to film on the 29th, as 100,000 people are out and about for the GF parade! (episcally at the MCG)

BritishTARFan:
We had a changing of the guard task in S25.
Also I think instead of Melbourne they should visit Queensland which hasn't been seen since S4. Brisbane, Gold Coast, Fraser Island, Whitsundays, Cairns, Palm Cove, Port Douglas & Barrier Reef are all possible locations.
Imagine they fly to Brisbane then get charter flights to Fraser Island.
The next leg they travel back to Brisbane where they visit the Koala Sanctuary, Detour on Southbank before having a surfing roadblock in nearby Gold Coast.
They could do 2 legs in the Cairns, Port Douglas, Kuranda, Barrier Reef vicinity.
Or they could do Brisbane/Gold Coast & The Whitsundays.
I think these would play host to amazing legs. Or we could have either the Whitsundays, Fraser Island or Cairns combined with Melbourne.

Yes the Gold Coast is a VERY good idea! Maybe Tasmania could be replaced with it??? I'm not sure about 2 legs in one state. I'm not too sure if the viewers would like it! Plus, we saw Cairns TAR4!
