The boathouse and beyond are decked out with merry décor that’s been mailed to the skippers or that they’ve created themselves. They’re even unwrapping a few holiday jokes to help everyone get in the spirit. Head to the Jungle Cruise ride now (sorry, the Jingle Cruise) to check out all the festive decor! And keep following DFB for more updates on the holidays in Disney World. Once we boarded and set off, the holiday decorations continued! The gorillas were enjoying some gifts at the campsite, and we love the touch of a Christmas wreath on the overturned car.

Bob worked on acrylic, nylon and orlon furs, tried all kind of dyes to see which would work on water animals, which would fade in the hot summer sun and which could withstand constant animation movements. The fur and feathers on audio animatronic birds and animals had to be constantly replaced because of the grease and wear and tear that ruin its Disney appearance.

With the arrival of the holiday season at Walt Disney World, the World Famous Jungle Cruise has transformed into the Jingle Cruise – a holiday layover for the attraction that brings updated props and jokes. The Jingle Cruise started back in 1935 (according to Jungle Cruise lore), but officially debuted at Magic Kingdom in 2013. Over the years, more props and jokes have been added to the jungle, and have made the Jingle Cruise a holiday season must-do.

Check out our photos from Jingle Cruise, and then watch our full ride-through below. One of the life preservers is decorated to look like a wreath. All of the decorations are meant to look handmade from things the Jungle Cruise skippers would have found around the dock.

The Hippo Pool, Chimp Country, and Schweitzer Falls were not decorated. An opening day attraction at Islands of Adventure will be closed for the foreseeable future. Finally, it looks like everyone’s been good this year, as there are even more presents at the parachute site, along with a green and red wreath. Meanwhile, over at the campsite, a pair of gorillas decide to deck themselves out in holiday finery. The wheels below have poinsettias, a flower common to the holidays.
Let’s board the boat and take one last look at the load area before we set off on our cruise. Continuing through the queue, there are some decorations in the large switchback space. Thankfully, we rode early in the morning at rope drop and the hour afterward, so we had some lower crowds to contend with. Alberta Falls’ shipping office has way too many details for us to photograph while trying to keep up with the party ahead of us, so keep your eyes peeled when you visit. The Christmas Tree typically found in the queue has been moved to the front of the building at the Jungle Navigation poster seen a few photos above.
While the decor starts simple with multi-colored Christmas lights, there are some clever uses of materials in the courtyard in front of the attraction. We’ll start with way too many photos of the attraction signage, which includes garland and Christmas lights. Yesterday, the Jungle Cruise at Magic Kingdom was transformed into the “Jingle Cruise” for the holiday season. Though most of the attraction and queue was decorated, the “Jingle Cruise” signs were not updated until today. Guests looking for a dash of holiday cheer will be happy to learn that Jingle Cruise is returning to Magic Kingdom on November 3rd.
Even the shack across from the loading dock is ready for the season, festooned with lights, garlands, and ornaments, along with a small Christmas tree and a decoration of Santa Claus’ face. When we visited, a section of the queue was roped off, though it was decorated for the overlay with ornaments and strings of colorful lights. Finally, Trader Sam has decorated his new “lost & found” gift shop for the holidays.
Holiday details are everywhere, so watch closely and listen for some holiday jokes thrown into the Jungle Cruise skipper spiel. The elephant pool doesn’t have any decorations, but it’s always a great spot to snap a photo or two. One of the “new” scenes that hasn’t been incorporated into the Jingle Cruise version of the ride is the Boats & Baits and Bites! Here are a few more details from the loading dock before we board our cruise through the (festive) jungle. As you enter the queue building proper, the fun begins – first visually and then audibly as holiday music plays and custom holiday announcements are made. A clever candy cane-style ‘i’ is added over the ‘u’ of Jungle Cruise to complete the transformation.
We have brought you amazing photos and first looks as Disney World transforms for the holidays, and it’s such a fun time of year as the parks get ready for the festive season. And, the live stream was extra special because it featured a ride on the newly refurbished Jungle Cruise attraction! As the ride has been refurbished with new scenes and jokes, guests have been able to check out the changes. The sign outside the attraction lets guests know that the holidays are here, as it’s wrapped in a garland with plenty of lights. Throughout the ride, many of the scenes have extra holiday props and decorations, like these Santa hats. Continuing the on-again, off-again nature of decorated scenes, we’ll go into a bit of a lull for the next 2.5 minutes or so.
No food or beverages are permitted to be brought onto the boat. When you purchase tickets online you will be sent an email with a confirmation number & barcode. The cruise returns to the Bahia Mar Yachting Center approximately 90 minutes after departure.
In one of the new scenes, this decorated boat has been overrun with monkeys. The shipping office is covered in decorations, including a small silver tree. The classic Magic Kingdom Jungle Cruise attraction has transformed into the Jingle Cruise for the holiday season at Walt Disney World. There is currently a 40-minute wait for the holiday attraction.
Storytellers will share winter traditions from all over the world. At night, celebrity narrators will host the Candlelight Processional. And Living With the Land will be aglow with Christmas lights. The first halves of the boat names have been covered to be turned into new seasonal names, like Icicle Irma.
