New Adventures to ‘Cast’ Off Soon Along World-Famous Jungle Cruise at Disneyland Park and Magic Kingdom Park

by Whitney Littlejohn · January 25, 2021

Disney is always looking for ways to enhance the classic attractions around the Walt Disney World Resort. Today we discovered that they will be building on the story of the fan favorite the Jungle Cruise at Disneyland Park and Disney World!

There will be new adventures, more knee-slapping humor, and the changes will reflect the value and diversity of the world around us. Kevin Lively – former Jungle Cruise skipper – popped in 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 Disney will be 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.

Recently, Imagineers had the chance to provide a sneak peek to a few skippers at Magic Kingdom park – check out the Walt Disney World Ambassador team on Instagram, @WDW.Ambassador, to see additional reactions, and stay tuned for more details about the enhancements in store for the Jungle Cruise, coming later this year.

We are so excited for all of the changes coming to the park! What do you think? Let us know in the comments below!
