Chateau d If:
If you ask me, it looks like the shots of teams looking out over the water are taken at different times. The sun is shinning in very low on Meredith & Gretchen so I think they are on an earlier boat than Ron & Kelly. I don't know why but it looks like morning sun too.
And Puddin, I'd say your Metro straw is a definte!

Some pretty good pix you pulled together, Puddin. Yes, it just might be the Istanbul Metro that we see Rob and Amber in front of the doors, the floor looks similar to the Metro picture. Also the shot of U/J and M/G walking together which was edited along with the airport waiting shots, is not in New Delhi: they have changed clothes and added warm jackets so it must now be in Istanbul. and could be in the metro area also.
The shot of R/A and R/K together looks like an India shot (short sleeved shirt on Ron). Ron and Kelly have headlights on, and it looks like they are reading insructions early in the morning. They would be leaving together since the arrived together. But can anyone identify what kind of vehicle the four of the them are in? It looks half open - look at the way Amber's hair is blowing. Could they be on the way in Lucknow from the pit stop to wherever they have to go to get transport to New Delhi. Rob has his red Sox hat on, later in Istanbul he has a knit watch cap on.
Shot of Joyce and Uchenna reading something looks like it is at the fort after Uchenna has rappelled down the wall and they are reading clue sending them to the pit stop. Must be late and cold - note that Joyce has a cloud of steam coming out of her mouth.
Shot of Meredith and Gretchen on the ferry looks like it is late in the day; sun is shining right in their eyes. So if they are on the way to the fort, they are running late again. But they do seem to be together with U/J who are ahead of them as they run down the wharf after arriving in the Asia half of Istanbul on the ferry.

Isn't Rumeli Fort on the European side?

ISTANBUL (Constantinople, Byzantium)--Set on the Golden Horn inlet off the
Sea of Marmara and sprawled across both sides of the Bosporus Strait (which
separates Europe from Asia), Istanbul has both an Asian and European feel.
It's very old (founded in 600 BC) and very large (the greater metropolitan
area has a population of 6,000,000). It was the capital city for nearly
1,600 years and holds a great deal of historical interest. Most of the
population and attractions are in the European section, primarily in the Old
Town; the Asian portion is reached by ferry or bridge. Both sides feature
colorful markets, wild traffic, beautiful architecture and fantastic
museums--plan to stay at least three nights.
