Get ready for Season Three of the hit reality TV series The Amazing Race Asia, as ten new teams face an array of Road Blocks, Fast Forwards, Yields, U-Turns and Detours covering a total of 21, 600 kilometres. This time around, viewers can expect more drama, competition, intense excitement and tougher challenges for a range of couples from across the continent. Nominated for an International Emmy® Award, The Amazing Race Asia – Season Three has been dubbed "the toughest Race ever”, with the focus of this fast-paced season switching to the contestant challenges, designed to test each team’s strengths and push their relationships to the limit.

Assembling behind the starting line will be the usual array of friends and family members, including the first couple from Korea, three former beauty queens – including one Miss Universe winner – and a chatty heiress who is definitely not in the Race for the money. Host Allan Wu returns to guide the teams in their attempt to reach the finishing mat first and take home US $100, 000.
