Leg 1 (United States → Brazil)

The Detour in Rio de Janeiro had teams take part in beach-related tasks on the famous Copacabana Beach.

Airdate: September 25, 2015[10]

At the start of The Amazing Race 27, in public view in Venice Beach, California, Phil Keoghan told the eleven teams where they would travel first: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Their first task was to take a taxi to Mother's Beach in Marina del Rey and grab a Schiller water-bike. Then, they would drive it to Burton Chace Park. The first team to complete this task would receive the only tickets on the first flight while all the other teams would be on the second flight, departing half an hour later.

Upon arriving in Rio de Janeiro, teams had to travel to Lagoa Heliport to get either a Route Info or a Fast Forward clue. For the Fast Forward, teams made their way to Clube São Conrado Free Flight where they had to ride a hang glider from Pedra Bonita and soar above the city. The teams who did not go for the Fast Forward had to pick a number and take a helicopter past Christ the Redeemer on the way to Urca Hill. Once landed, the helicopter manager would ask the teams, "What's the name of the monument you passed during the flight?" If teams gave the right answer, which was Christ the Redeemer, they would receive their next clue.

The clue was a Detour, and the teams choose between Sand or Sidewalk. Both Detours had teams travel to Copacabana Beach where they changed into swimsuits. In Sand, teams had to play footvolley against local professional players. While the pros could not use their hands, the teams could. If teams can score six points before the pros scored eighteen, they will receive their next clue. In Sidewalk, teams had to do a giant geometric slide puzzle derived from the famous Copacabana pavement (a Portuguese pavement). Once teams completed the puzzle, they would receive their next clue. Both clues then directed teams to Arpoador Lookout for the Pit Stop.

Leg 2 (Brazil → Argentina)

Upon arriving in Buenos Aires, teams visited the room where the famous Argentine, Pope Francis, was baptized inside Basílica María Auxiliadora y San Carlos.

Airdate: October 2, 2015[11]

At the start of the leg, teams were told to fly to Buenos Aires, the capital city of Argentina. Upon arrival in Buenos Aires, teams had to locate the church where Pope Francis was baptized, leaving them to figure out that this refers to Basílica María Auxiliadora y San Carlos. Once at the church, teams had to pick a number in the order in which they arrived. The following morning, teams went inside the church, one at a time, to find the altar room, where the priest would give them their next clue.

The clue was for the Detour, giving teams the choice of Cartoneros or Fletero. In Cartoneros, teams traveled to the Villa Crespo neighborhood at the intersection of Uriarte, Fray Justo Santa Maria and El Salvador Streets, where they had to pick up a cart, collect cardboard from recyclable bins, and transport it to a truck to be weighed. Once the cardboard reached a total weight of at least 100 kilograms (220 lb), the garbage worker would give them their next clue. However, there were only 8 carts available at a time. In Fletero, teams traveled to Plaza Dorrego and made their way to a Gabriel del Campo Antique Shop to pick up a statue, in pieces, and bring it to a truck. One team member would sit in the front and give the driver directions, while the other would hold the statue pieces in the back until reaching their next destination, the gazebo at Plaza Intendente Sebeer. Once they arrive at the park, they must bring all of the statue pieces, re-assemble them properly, and show the park director. If it's correct, they would get their next clue.

The clues after the Detour instructed teams to travel to Calle Bartolomé Mitre to search for the cluebox with their next clue, the Roadblock, asking "Who wants to go sideways?" One team member had to learn a tango routine with a twist, for the second half of the dance they were harnessed and had to finish the steps on the wall of a stage. Once they performed the entire routine correctly, they would receive their next clue, directing them to "The Cathedral of Polo", referring to Campo Argentino de Polo, for the Pit Stop.

Leg 3 (Argentina)

For the Roadblock in the Pampas region, team members had to properly hang a set of lamb and beef to make asado, an Argentine national dish.

Airdate: October 9, 2015[12]

At the start of the leg, teams traveled by bus to the rural town of San Antonio de Areco in the Pampas region. Upon arrival, they had to choose a pickup truck to proceed to their next destination, La Porteña, and their next clue. At the La Porteña ranch, teams received the Roadblock that asked, "Who's smoking hot?" One team member had to properly hang two racks of lamb and one rack of beef ribs onto a set of metal grills to cook the meat asado style. Once the meats were secured on all sides, skewered properly, with the bones oriented in the correct direction, to the head cook's standards, he would give them their next clue.

After the Roadblock, teams had to bring a roasted lamb and travel to Plaza Principal and deliver it to the judges in order to receive their next clue. The clue was for a gaucho-inspired Detour: Horse or Carriage. In Horse, teams had to pick a polo mallet from the plaza, walk to Boliche de Bessonart to change into polo gear. Then, they had to walk to a riverside across the bridge and pick out a fake horse where they must tack it properly and then push it back to the plaza. In Carriage, teams had to pick a buggy whip from the plaza, travel by foot to La Cinacina Estancia. There they had to change into Gaucho clothing, clean a carriage and then push it to a team of waiting horses. Once the horses are harnessed to the buggy, they had to ride back to the plaza. At the end of both Detours, they had to present either the fake horse or whip to the judges and receive their next clue, instructing them to travel by foot to the Pit Stop at Parque Criollo y Museo Gauchesco Ricardo Güiraldes.

Leg 4 (Argentina → Zambia → Zimbabwe)

While in Zambia, teams visited Victoria Falls, the largest waterfall in the world, which is also one of the seven natural wonders of the world.

Airdate: October 16, 2015[13]

Teams started the leg at Plaza Principal and were instructed to travel to Livingstone, Zambia, the home of Victoria Falls, one of the seven natural wonders of the world. They were tasked to book their tickets to O. R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, South Africa and given two separate flights to Livingstone arriving 15 minutes apart. Upon arrival, they made their way to Mukuni Village and had to take part in a traditional welcome ceremony in which the village chief would spit water from a pitcher on them as a blessing in order to get their next clue.

The clue instructed teams to travel to Batoka Aerodrome and picked up their next clue, which was the Roadblock and said "Who wants to rise above the smoke that thunders?" One team member had to choose a microlight plane and fly above Victoria Falls to spot the route marker below the mist on Knife's Edge Bridge. Once landed, they reunited with their partner and had to travel to that bridge and then walk across it to get their next clue, sending them to Shoestrings Backpackers Lodge across the border in the nearby town of Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. At the Lodge, teams had to spend the night and pick one of three times to leave the following morning 20-minutes apart: 8:00 am, 8:10 am and 8:20 am.

The next morning, teams received their clue, which was for the Detour: a choice between Co-Op or Croquet. In Co-Op, teams made their way to The Big Five Co-Op and had to stain and polish a carved wooden giraffe. When it was properly painted and dried, a woodcarver would give them their next clue. In Croquet, teams made their way to Victoria Falls Hotel and had to play croquet, scoring five points against professional players to receive their next clue. Both clues directed them to Rose of Charity Orphanage for the Pit Stop, which was also the location of the Double U-Turn. Before checking in, teams were asked to donate their money to the orphanage, and were informed that the next leg was to begin immediately.

Leg 5 (Zimbabwe)

This leg of the race featured the first challenge of Season 1 where they had to swing across Batoka Gorge.

Airdate: October 23, 2015[14]

Teams received the clue at the Pit Stop and had to travel to the Lookout Cafe and search to the next clue, which was for the Roadblock and asked "Who wants to gorge themselves?" One team member participated in the very first task from Season 1. The team member had to strap on a harness and free fall 200 feet (61 m) into the Batoka Gorge and swing above the Zambezi River. Once they returned to the top, they would get their next clue.

The clue received was for the Detour, a choice between Crocs or Canoes. In Crocs, teams had to travel Crocodile Cage Diving at Elephants Walk Shopping and Artist Village where they changed into wetsuits and were submerged in a metal cage to feed meat to three Nile crocodiles using poles. Once the meat was fed, they received their next clue. In Canoes, teams had to travel to A Zambezi River Lodge where they had to get an inflatable canoe and paddle together across the river. Once they arrived at the riverbank, one team member had to hoist their partner up a tree to retrieve the clue from a vulture's nest, then they had to paddle back across the river.

The clues after the Detour instructed them to travel to The Lion Encounter at Masuwe Safari Lodge where they must walk through the bush accompanied by safari instructors and two lions to find their next clue in a skull, only two teams were permitted at a time. The clue received directed them to walk to Masuwe Private Game Reserve where they received a large cloth to tie around their heads. Each then had to get a basket of fruit at Masuwe Lodge to carry on their heads and continue walking carefully to the Pit Stop.

Leg 6 (Zimbabwe → France)

The world's famous Arc de Triomphe in Paris, which is also the second Pit Stop in the first season, served as the Pit Stop for this leg of the Race.

Airdate: October 30, 2015[15]

Teams started the leg in Zimbabwe and received the Roadblock clue, asking "Who wants to get their heart pumping?" They made their way to Victoria Falls Bridge where one team member had to strap on a harness and bungee jump 364 feet (111 m) from the bridge. Once they returned to the top, they had to write down their heart rate from a Fitbit fitness watch. Teams were advised to track this information throughout the leg as it would be used in a challenge on the following leg. They got their next clue and were instructed to travel to Paris, France.

Upon arrival, they traveled by train to Aérodrome Musée Volant Salis in the town of La Ferté-Alais. At the Aerodrome, they picked up their clue for a second Roadblock, asking "Who's feeling revolutionary?" The team member who did not participate in the first Roadblock must fly in a vintage Boeing PT-17 biplane over the French countryside and spot the three words on the motto of the French Revolution seen from the ground: liberté, égalité, fraternité. Once they recite the words, a pilot would give them their next clue, sending them to travel back to Paris and search the grounds of Square Louise-Michel around Sacré-Cœur Basilica for Le Fantôme Blanc who would hand them their next clue.

The clue was for the Detour, giving teams the choice of Drops Mic or Bust a Crab. In Drops Mic, teams had to head to Quai de la Tournelle and perform a rap song by rapper Passi in Standard French. If their French pronunciation, rhythm and vibes were correct, Passi would give them their next clue. In Bust a Crab, teams had to travel to La Coupole Restaurant where they worked on a French signature crab dish, the Royal Platter. They must shuck and crack crabs properly to meet the chef's standards. At the end of both Detours, teams received a post card depicting a bridge, which was of their next location, Pont Alexandre III. Here they found their next clue, sending them to the Pit Stop "across from the iconic monument where the first team will triumph", referring to Place Charles de Gaulle, overlooking Arc de Triomphe. At the Pit Stop, Phil informed the teams that the next leg was to begin immediately.

Leg 7 (France → The Netherlands)

The windmills around Kinderdijk are the site of this leg's Roadblock, where they had to search the famous Van Gogh's Sunflowers replica.

Airdate: November 6, 2015[16]

The teams received their clues at the Pit Stop and had to travel by train to the city of Rotterdam, Netherlands. In addition, they received a picture of a ship and had to figure out their next location was Vessel 11. Upon arrival, teams picked a departure time and then spent the night on the ship. The departure times in 15-minutes intervals for the next day. The earliest departure time was 5:00 am and latest departure was 6:30 am.

The next morning, the teams received their clues and had to travel by water taxi from Kop van Zuid to the windmills in Kinderdijk to get their next clue, which was for the Roadblock, asking "Who wants to pick the sunflowers?" One team member had to find an exact duplicate of Vincent van Gogh's Sunflowers placed around nearby windmills. If they found the correct duplicate, a miller would give them their next clue. The clue instructed the teams to record their highest heart rate from the previous leg and their heart rate from this leg's Roadblock and subtract the difference. The solution would equal the number of tulips they would have to pick up and deliver to the 'Spakenburgermeisje' (Dutch for 'the girl at Spakenburg') to receive their next clue.

The clue instructed the teams to travel by water taxi to Nolet Distillery to receive their next clue: the Detour, giving the choice between Ship or Skip. For both Detours, teams must travel by tram to a specific location. In Ship, teams made their way to Millennium Tower and using a training simulator, they had to navigate a simulation of Rotterdam Harbour in stormy weather to complete a two-part mission. The first part of the mission was to deliver a pilot to a ship. The second part was to go to the aid of a ship in distress. If their mission was completed in under five minutes, the captain would give them their next clue. However if they failed the mission, teams had to try again. In Skip, teams made their way to Leuvehoofd Park and had to complete a Double Dutch clapping routine on a jump rope for a full 45 seconds to receive their next clue. Both clues instructed the teams to travel by train to The Hague and ride a tram to the Pit Stop at the Peace Palace.

Leg 8 (The Netherlands → Poland)

In Kraków, teams visited the infamous Oskar Schindler Factory to commemorate the lives of Jews killed in World War II.

Airdate: November 13, 2015[17]

At the start of the leg, teams received their clue that instructed them to fly to Kraków, Poland. They also were provided with a smartphone to use the Travelocity app to book flights to Kraków. Upon arrival in Kraków, they had to head to Plaża Kraków, a hotel boat located on the banks of Vistula River. Once there, one team member dove into the swimming pool and retrieved their next clue.

The clue was the Detour, giving the teams a choice of Mine or Music. In Mine, teams made their way to Wieliczka Salt Mine and had to descend down 1,000 feet (300 m) into the salt mine. Then, they had to carry a large timber support beam into a loading area. Then after filling a mine cart with salt, they pushed the salt back through the tunnel where a miner would hand them their next clue. In Music, teams had to travel to the city's Main Square where they had to choose a professional pianist, learn a musical piece and roll the piano through the streets to a performance area. Then, they had to perform a duet with a violinist in order to attract donations from passers-by. Once they earned 100 (approximately US$25), they would receive their next clue from the musician.

The clue directed teams to Oskar Schindler Factory, the place where the lives of over a thousand Jewish people were saved during Kraków Ghetto. Once inside, they were given a tour of the factory with an official tour guide to commemorate the lives of Polish Jews around the world. Then, they passed through Schindler's office, and looked at 1,200 names inside the memorial room. Once they ended the tour, a museum official gave them their next clue.

The clue teams received sent them to Kazimierz, the city's Jewish Quarter, to search for the next clue on the street, which was the Roadblock, asking "Who can handle a big order?" Using a written list as reference, one team member had to identify seven traditional Jewish dishes in the correct order, and then deliver them on a tray to a nearby restaurant, Klezmer-Hois, which was also the location of the Pit Stop. Once all of these dishes were correct, the restaurant owner would give them their next clue, directing them to the Pit Stop inside the restaurant.
