Hosted by Heikki Paasonen, it features eleven teams of two, each with a pre-existing relationship and including at least one celebrity contestant, in a race around Central Europe and Latin America to win €30,000.

Starting in Vantaa, racers travelled through Poland, Romania, Colombia, Panama and Costa Rica before returning to Finland and finishing in Helsinki.

While some people critiqued the length of the episodes and lack of entertaining teams, most of the fans were delighted about the much faster pace of Amazing Race Suomi compared to the first season.

More diverse locations in Europe and Latin America gained praise, as the previous season only visited in Southeast Asia.

However, during the third leg in Romania, the Roadblock task requiring the teams to eat meat-based food caused heavy criticism on Finnish social media, as many of the contestants confess to be vegetarians or vegans.
