Race Across the World is returning for its fourth season very soon.
According to RadioTimes, the BBC competition series is set to premiere its new season on BBC One and BBC iPlayer on Wednesday, April 10 at 9pm.
While this year's cast and route haven't yet been confirmed, we do know that we'll once again follow five pairs of travellers as they attempt to make their way across multiple countries on a tight budget, with no phone or internet connection, and without flying.
It's also been reported that the show has been renewed for a fifth season, which will likely air next year.

Meanwhile, spin-off series Celebrity Race Across the World will also return to BBC One for its second season, though a release date has not yet been confirmed.
Announcing the renewal last year, Catherine Catton, the BBC's Head of Commissioning for Factual Entertainment and Events, said: "We would like to thank our cast for putting their heart and soul into it, and we are delighted with the reaction, particularly from young audiences on iPlayer.
"We are very much looking forward to working with Studio Lambert on the next series."

"Audiences seem pleased that the difficult and disarming undertaking of the Race was watered down for well-known personalities and their loved ones," executive producer Tim Harcourt added.
"We are thrilled to be making another series for the BBC."
The first celebrity series, which aired last year, included McFly's Harry Judd and his mum Emma, All Saints singer Mel Blatt and her mum Helene, Channel 4 F1 pundit Billy Monger and his sister Bonny, and Good Morning Britain host Alex Beresford and his father Noel.
Ultimately, Alex and his dad Noel were crowned the winners after being the first pair to arrive at the final checkpoint.
