Boats at the top of the slide
Utilising Legoland's steep hill to the full, Raft Raiders is a two lane water slide in Duplo Valley.
Riders choose whether to tackle the blue or yellow slide, then climb into an inflatable dinghy at the top. There's a strictly enforced rule that there must be two riders per boat: single riders are not allowed.
The dinghies slide down the water-filled chute, picking up speed quickly. With the slide twisting right and left as it goes, passengers are in for a wet ride. And you're almost certain of a soaking!
Originally opened in May 1999, the ride was first known as Extreme Team Challenge: an unusual choice of name considering it isn't particularly extreme, nor does it involve any team-based competition. The name was changed to Raft Racers when the surrounding area was rethemed as Duplo Valley in 2013.
