For The Amazing Race’s next season, CBS will be taking viewers on a whole new set of adventures. Adventures not yet seen even after 12 installments of the Emmy-award winning series.
Although we’ll still get what we have come to know and love - 11 teams, five continents, 30,000 miles of travel - the producers of the reality hit promise us that Season 13 will be like no other.
Where can we expect Phil Keoghan to take us this year? After starting in Los Angeles, the duos will travel to Brazil, Bolivia, Russia and India. The crews will also hit Cambodia (where they visit a “real-life water world") and Kazakhstan for the very first time.

But the destinations will not be the only things of note this season. One team eventually makes an “unprecedented mistake” that keeps them from reaching the finish line. (I’m praying to the lottery gods that I don’t wind up with this pair in my Amazing Race pool.)
Need an idea of who you’d like to root for this season? Well, here’s the quick lowdown on the teams racing for the $1 million prize. (You can see pics of the individual groups here.)
