If you have ever been on the Jungle Cruise® Attraction, then you know that it is the Skipper of the Cruise that makes this ride really great. Although each Skipper has a script that they follow, it’s their individual personalities that makes the difference. On my families last trip to Walt Disney World® Resort we had a wonderful cruise Skipper. She was hilarious and did an excellent job of bringing us into the “Jungle”. She was very engaging, making sure she included everyone on the Cruise in what she was saying and doing. The combination of her personality and the night time atmosphere really made for a fun ride that evening. This also made for a magical moment for my family, one that we will not soon forget.
Recently, Disney announced that the Jungle Cruise® Attraction at Walt Disney World® Resort and Disneyland® Resort would be transformed into the Jingle Cruise for the Holidays. I, for one, am very excited about this transformation. Although I will not be able to make it to Walt Disney World® Resort this Holiday season, this ride will definitely be put on my must do for future Holiday trips.
This is the first time ever that the Jungle Cruise® Attraction is being transformed into the Jingle Cruise. The story behind the transformation goes like this. The Skippers are homesick for the Holidays, so they have added holiday cheer to the Jungle Cruise queue and boathouse with decorations from home. The Skippers will entertain guests with holiday jokes and the Jungle Cruise boats have been temporarily renamed for the holidays. Also, if you listen closely you will hear the holiday radio broadcast in the background.
If you are going to be in the Walt Disney World® Resort or Disneyland® Resort this holiday be sure to check out the Jingle Cruise. It promises to be full of holiday cheer!
