Congo River Rapids

Hop aboard the classic Congo River Rapids at Alton Towers and expect a good soaking!

Take a voyage down choppy waters of Katanga Canyon on the Congo River Rapids ride. You'll be carried away with the current as you flow through tunnels and caverns on this stretch of choppy water.

You'll bob over the crests of waves, dip into white waters, and perhaps even find yourself under a waterfall. One things for sure though - you will get let!
