What’s that I hear from Walt Disney World's Adventure Land? Jingle Cruise, Jingle Cruise, Jingle all the way! Changing a ”U” to an “I” along with some well-placed holiday decorations and holiday themed narration is all it took to change the “Jungle Cruise” into the “Jingle Cruise”. I’m sure you’ve heard the story… The Skippers got a little homesick this holiday season, scavenged what they could, along with some items from home to decorate the Jungle Cruise for the holidays.
The boats have all been renamed and re-themed for the holidays. There was Icicle Irma, Mistletoe Millie and Poinsettia Sal, to name a few. The queue is lined with Christmas trees and holiday decorations, providing a nice touch in an area that had typically seen little to no holiday decorations in the past. The updated narration provides the same type of humor you’re accustomed to on the Jungle Cruise: “Watch out for the Hum-Bugs” & “Looks like someone is getting a tree with a boa on top”. And like the Jungle Cruise, the Jingle Cruise experience relies on the capabilities of your “Tree Trimmer, Popcorn Stringer, Gift Wrapper, Cookie Cutter and Secret Santa”… otherwise known as your Skipper. Skipper interaction and enthusiasm is the key to a memorable Jingle Cruise. The cruise also changes from day to night. Christmas lights are always better at night.
