New Details to Discover at Disneylandâs Jungle Cruise Photograph by Christian Thompson/Disneyland Resort Transporting guests to the jungles and rivers of Africa, Asia, and South America, this scenic safari is known for its visual gags and irreverent skippers. When the opening day ride makes its return to the marquee next Friday, you might notice some new additions. âWe feel very strongly that our (updated attractions) still tell the same story and have the same look and feel to them,â says Kim Irvine, executive creative director of Walt Disney Imagineering. âBut, I think itâs important to not be able to go through (an) attraction and tell you whatâs behind every corner. To have new surprises and new added elements that are maybe more relevant to todayâs world and todayâs stories. As Iâve always said, itâs got to be just as good, if not better.â
