[s34e5] The Amazing Race Of Arabia Review

Critics on Reality Blurred expressed boredom with the "shuttled around" format, noting that the lack of self-driving and navigation made the episode feel less like a race and more like a guided tour.

“Petra is one of the most incredible places the race has ever been to, but the tasks were very underwhelming.” Reddit · r/TheAmazingRace · 3 years ago

Reviewers and fans shared mixed feelings on the balance of the episode's location and challenges.

One racer had to use a metal detector to find "spaceship debris" (a nod to films like The Martian filmed there) buried in the sand dunes.

Reviewers from The Amazing Race Post Discussion noted that while Jordan is a "dream come true" location, the tasks felt like a "needle in a haystack" followed by "easy" detour options.
