There's nothing to do in Port Campbell...

TAR Australia 3's final leg, was REALLY bad down there in Port Campbell...

An alternate leg could be held in Tasmania, Gold Coast or Adelaide!

--- End quote ---
i've been to Port Campbell and the only thing they have there is are just The Twelve Apostles and helicopter rides

--- End quote ---
Also shanghai is overused in many diffrent versions of TAR so maybe going to some more further china places, for example Shandong, Nanjing or sholin

New and improved TAR 32 Wishlist:

Main wish is 12 teams and 13 legs, so that's how we'll do it here (with adjustments based off 11 team/12 leg race)

Starting Line: The Getty Villa, Los Angeles, CA, USA

Leg 1: Los Angeles, USA to Nadi, Fiji (EL- 12th place)
Starting Line Task involving finding Fijian flag somewhere in the Villa; 2 roadblocks- culture/dance task, needle-in-haystack task; additional RI; beach pit stop

Pit start back in Melbourne; Roadblock/Detour/W-turn all in Siem Reap and surrounding towns; final active RI in Angkor Wat- puzzle task; pit stop on grounds of Angkor Wat

Leg 5: Siem Reap, Cambodia to Kathmandu, Nepal (NEL- 8 teams)
Task involving prayer flags, hectic market tasks
 
Leg 6: Kathmandu and surrounding areas, Nepal (EL- 8th place)

Leg 7: Kathmandu, Nepal to Amman/Petra, Jordan (EL- 7th place)
Arabic writing task in Amman among additional tasks, self-drive to Petra, desert-related Roadblock before searching around Petra for pit stop

Leg 8: Amman, Jordan to Warsaw, Poland (NEL- 6 teams)

Leg 9: Warsaw, Poland to Naples/Almafi, Italy (EL- 6th place)
Self driving leg (pick up cars in Rome); MANDATORY pizza-making task (birthplace of pizza); visit Pompeii; pit stop along Almafi coast

Leg 10: Naples, Italy to Kumasi, Ghana (KRL- 5 teams)

Leg 12: Accra, Ghana to Dublin/County Cork, Ireland (EL- 4th place)
self driving leg starting in Dublin, travelling along southern countryside

Leg 13: Dublin, Ireland to Boston, USA (Finale- 3 teams)
Final teams visit Blarney Stone for luck in final leg before taking a bus back to Dublin; at least 1 task relating to American Revolution (Boston Tea Party/Paul Revere/Sam Adams); memory challenge as 2nd of 2 roadblocks and as final task; Finish Line at Harvard University

To reduce route to 12 legs with 11 teams: remove Poland leg, and make Jordan leg NEL.

The season should include The Philippines with 2 legs and 2 new European countries with 1 leg each. I saw that in Season 2 they went to Calgary and did the task of currency coins and flags. They did viewed the flag of The Philippines many times. It might be a hint for The Philippines to be visited next.

dryedmangoez:
The Philippines would be an easy choice for TAR Canada as they can easily do the Canadian connection they like to do and talk about the large Filipino Canadian population.
