Season chronology

The Amazing Race 29 is the twenty-ninth season of the American reality competition show The Amazing Race. Unlike previous seasons, which almost exclusively featured teams with pre-existing relationships, this season, hosted by Phil Keoghan, featured 22 contestants who were all complete strangers who met for the first time and formed eleven teams of two at the starting line. These teams competed in a race around the world to win US$1,000,000. This season visited five continents and nine countries and traveled over 36,000 miles (58,000 km) during twelve legs. Starting in Los Angeles, racers traveled through Panama, Brazil, Tanzania, Norway, Italy, Greece, Vietnam, and South Korea before returning to the United States and finishing in Chicago. New elements introduced in this season include a pre-starting line task and allowing teams to use the U-Turn more than once. Elements of the show that returned for this season include an Express Pass hidden on the racecourse and the Blind Double U-Turn. The season premiered on CBS on Thursday, March 30, 2017, and the season finale aired on June 1, 2017.

Brooke Camhi and Scott Flanary were the winners of this season, while Tara Carr and Joey Covino finished in second place, and London Kaye and Logan Bauer finished in third place.
