How & Where to Watch The Amazing Race in 2023: All 34 Seasons
Phil Keoghan is back once again to host The Amazing Race season 34. The new season premieres September 21 on CBS, but if you’re not in the U.S., you’ll need to use a VPN to watch it. This guide shows you how to watch The Amazing Race from anywhere.
The Amazing Race is back again for season 34 and a milestone 400th episode, but the contest is a little different this time. Instead of a usual race start in America, the 12 teams of pairs have an international start ahead of them in Munich, Germany. If you want to get a head start, this guide shows you how to watch The Amazing Race from anywhere with a VPN.
Key Takeaways:
- The Amazing Race season 34 premieres on Sept. 21, 2022 on CBS.
- CBS is only available in the U.S. and is available with certain streaming services, such as fuboTV, Sling TV and Paramount Plus.
- If you’re not in the U.S., you’ll need to use a VPN to connect to a U.S. server. ExpressVPN is the best choice for the job.
With their usual limited budget, the teams race around the world, taking part in a series of challenges that help them progress to the next location and ultimately closer to the $1 million prize finale.
However, this time around, the team that comes last in each leg will be automatically eliminated — hence the name of the first episode, “Many Firsts But Don’t Be Last.”
If you want to watch online when the teams begin their global race, this guide will help you do so from anywhere around the world. Let’s get started.
All seasons of The Amazing Race are available on Amazon Prime Video U.S. However, only seasons 32 and 33 are available with Prime. The rest you have to pay for separately.
You can watch it on CBS via a streaming service like fuboTV, Hulu + Live TV and YouTube TV, to name a few. If you’re not in the U.S., you’ll need to use a VPN to connect to a U.S. server.

How to Watch The Amazing Race Season 34: Release Date on CBS
Season 34 of The Amazing Race premieres on CBS on Wednesday, Sept. 21 at 10 p.m. ET. and continues to air weekly. You can head to the CBS website to watch it online, but you’ll need to log in with a TV provider.

If you’re a cord-cutter, there are other ways you can tune in to the CBS channel live. Streaming services like Paramount+, DirecTV Stream, fuboTV, YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV and Sling TV all include the CBS channel. Some of those services offer a free trial to new subscribers, too.
However, all of those services are bound by geoblocks, meaning they’re only available in certain countries. If you’re not in one of those countries, you can use a virtual private network (VPN) to access them. We’ll show you how a bit later with one particular service.
Where to Watch Other Seasons of The Amazing Race
If you’re looking to watch season 33 or other seasons of The Amazing Race, we found a couple of options with older seasons available. The CBS website and Paramount+ have season 33 available to stream, but nothing older.
Hulu doesn’t have all seasons of The Amazing Race, but it does have a good mix. You can watch seasons 1, 2, 5, 7, 23 and 32 on demand, and Hulu offers new subscribers a one-month free trial.
Amazon Prime Video U.S. has all seasons of The Amazing Race available, but they’re not free with a Prime subscription. Seasons 32 and 33 are available with a Paramount+ subscription through Prime. If you don’t want another subscription, you can purchase episodes and seasons separately, including seasons 1 through 31.

With both of those options being only for U.S. customers, you’ll need to use a VPN to get a U.S. IP address if you’re outside the country. You can read both our guides on how to watch Prime Video and how to watch Hulu with a VPN for help on that.

The Best VPNs for Watching The Amazing Race
Below are our VPN recommendations for watching The Amazing Race from anywhere around the world, starting with the best overall VPN, ExpressVPN.
1. ExpressVPN

Pros:
- Very fast
- Unrivaled streaming ability
- Plenty of U.S. servers
Cons:
- Expensive
For the absolute best streaming experience, you can’t go wrong with ExpressVPN. Its speeds are super fast, so you’re not left with a buffering stream and it can easily bypass the geoblocks of any streaming service. Plus, its large server network includes multiple U.S. server locations.
ExpressVPN is an easy-to-use VPN that comes with strong security and a 30-day money-back guarantee. It’s an expensive service when compared to other VPNs, but you’re paying for a premium service, and you can bring the cost down significantly by opting for the annual plan.
You can read our ExpressVPN review to get a complete look at the service.
2. NordVPN

Pros:
- Fastest VPN speeds
- Affordable long-term plans
- Lots of U.S. servers
Cons:
- Difficult mobile map
Our second VPN recommendation is NordVPN. In many ways, NordVPN is neck and neck with ExpressVPN, but there are some shortcomings that push it into second place. Still, it can unblock streaming services with ease and it does win in the VPN speed department, mostly thanks to its NordLynx protocol.
NordVPN provides top-notch security and has a large number of U.S. servers to choose from, among many other countries.
Its plans are more affordable than ExpressVPN, but you have to lock in for two years to benefit from the cheapest cost. Our NordVPN review talks more about the service, but you can use the 30-day money-back guarantee to see what it’s like for yourself.
