Jungle Cruise

Another Walt Disney World classic is the world-famous Jungle Cruise. From cheesy dad jokes to some of the most iconic theme park scenes, this attraction brings guests to the rivers of the world to explore and encounter different animals.

The Jungle Cruise is located in Adventureland at Magic Kingdom Park and starts off with guests touring the dock area of the attraction. Throughout the queue, you’ll see different artifacts and posters about what’s ahead on your adventure. Be sure to listen in to the music and announcements made since they all circle back to what you’re about to encounter on the Jungle Cruise.

Once on board, your skipper will guide you through the different rivers to eventually lead you to the backside of water, one of the rides most beloved spots. Before you exit you’ll spot Trader Sam, who is willing and ready to bargain. One of the best things about the Jungle Cruise is that the skippers really make the attraction fun as they stay in character throughout your journey. And if you want to completely different experiences on the same attraction be sure to ride once during the day and once at night.

This attraction is suitable for families and guests of all ages. It is recommended that you get a FastPass+ reservation since this is such a popular attraction. If you cannot get one, the best times to experience the attraction is first thing in the morning, or during the nighttime fireworks show, Happily Ever After.
