A slow moving boat ride, on rails, with plenty of animatronics and entertainment along the way. It's a classic, even if it's a bit dated.

Jungle Cruise is a seven minute boat ride that takes you through the world's jungles. You'll see all sorts of (animatronic) animals along the way while your skipper guides you along and cracks all sorts of jokes (joke being code for corny one liners).

The boat is on rails and is very slow moving with no drops so you won't get wet here. Younger kids will love the animals and ride overall while older kids and adults may be a bit bored or feel oddly obligated to laugh at the skipper's bad jokes. The jokes are scripted but occasionally you get a really good skipper who can add their own extras in or at least deliver the lines really well.

The overall ride hasn't changed all that much over the years and that's exactly how it feels. Disney purists, who love to keep everything as Walt left it, would never consider changing this ride but I'd like to see some updates. Still, it's a fun ride.

If you've enjoyed this review my name is Matt. If you didn't like this review my name is Sally. If you've never been on the cruise then that will make absolutely no sense to you at all.
