New Adventures Await on the World-famous Jungle Cruise and Disney Imagineers are on Board with More Humor, More Wildlife, More Fun

As you may have heard through the jungle vine, the world-famous Jungle Cruise will begin booking official tours once again on July 16 at Disneyland park. Alberta Falls, proprietor of the Jungle Navigation Company Ltd., is also preparing for explorers at Magic Kingdom Park, where this classic experience will be complete this summer. Disney Imagineers have collaborated on this bicoastal project to create new characters who come from around the world, with an expanded storyline and some fun surprises for all to discover.

In the video below, see an exotic bird’s eye view of the intrepid Imagineers in their natural habitat, creating magic for all to enjoy!

The “gnu” magic includes new adventures that stay true to the experience we know and love – more humor, more wildlife and skipper heart. At Disney Parks, we continue to look for ways to enhance classic attractions and elevate the experience for all of our Guests.

The enhancements include several new scenes and new characters from around the world – beginning with a trapped safari party that finds itself up a tree after their journey goes awry. Count on our skippers to share the unique adventure with the jokes and fun interactions that make them world famous!

Imagineers could be monkeying around a bit, up until the tour officially opens on July 16. Here’s a tip we got from the dock: Disneyland skippers are getting up to speed in their tramp steamers, and there’s a chance Guests may get to stow away on an early expedition starting today!

We think our Guests are going to love the new adventures on the Jungle Cruise! (And if they don’t, my name is Kungaloosh and they’ll love Space Mountain!)
