Rumors of a makeover to the world famous Jungle Cruise attraction have been around for a while, but now, they’ve been confirmed. The attractions at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland will be getting a makeover in storyline, among other things.
The new storyline will fall in line with changing some things at the Disney Parks so they are appropriate for everyone. The new Jungle Cruise will include new adventures that stay true to the experience we know and love – more humor, wildlife and skipper heart – and also reflect and value the diversity of the world around us. There are no bigger fans of this attraction than our Imagineers so I’ve invited Kevin Lively – former Jungle Cruise skipper – to share a transmission from the world’s most remote tropical rivers!
Continuing a tradition that Walt Disney started more than six decades ago when he first enhanced the Jungle Cruise, the new creative concept for our river’s journey will be original to Walt Disney Imagineering, just like the attraction itself. Here’s a first look at some of the “gnu” magic we’re adding:
Imagineers are excited to invite current Jungle Cruise skippers at Disneyland park and Magic Kingdom park to a Jungle Navigation Company Roll Call, where they will be among the first to hear more about the new adventures and wonders coming down the river.
While there is no exact start or completion date yet known for the Jungle Cruise makeover, Disney has said they will come at some point in 2021.
