Riding the World Famous Jungle Cruise at Magic Kingdom is always such a good time — a PUNNY good time, if you will.
Take a Jingle Cruise!
But it gets even better every year during the holidays because it becomes the Jingle Cruise! And we just rode the Jingle Cruise for the first time in 2020! Come along with us to see the changes!
The Jingle Cruise is what the Jungle Cruise becomes during the holiday season every year. The attraction gets a holiday overlay, and the skippers get some fun new holiday-themed dialogue! It’s a perfect way to mark the beginning of the holiday season at Magic Kingdom!

So today, we got in line and got ready to board the Jingle Cruise, all the while listening to holiday music over the attraction queue’s speakers!

And soon we were off with our Skipper introducing herself for our long journey (note: she is NOT our Secret Santa!).

There are so many fun details added to the ride for the holiday overlay! If you haven’t ridden it before, it’s well worth the wait!
Headed into the Temple!
And here we are at Inspiration Falls, with a special Jingle Holiday song!

We love all the little additional holiday touches to the ride! Uh oh! Looks like someone isn’t getting their presents this year!
