The last time we were there we rode it towards the end of EMH one night and the kid was so funny!He was so preoccupied with everything else going on. We had this really spastic kid on the boat and he kept telling him to "slow your roll" otherwise some animal was going to come and get him. Then at one point we passed a real duck. It was just sitting on a rock, like that's where it always is. And the skipper just says, "Oh look, a duck." And then kept on with his spiel. My family still quotes it to this day.

A couple of years ago, a bunch of my friends (all theme park nuts) went to DL. I think it was the first time we had a Jungle Skipper actually speechless.
Once we told her we were there to see the killer penguins from Norway, I think she knew she was in for it.

That's hilarious!

"Don't turn out to be a Jungle Cruise Guide"?
Wasn't John Lassiter a Jungle Cruise Guide once?
-
Meh...
We're not talking about them.
Besides, it's a joke. You know, hehe, haha?
We've got tons of them.
I remember someone getting off of the Jungle Cruise and they were like "That wasn't a Jungle Cruise....that was a Pun Cruise!" Uh yeah....that actually is the Jungle Cruise.
'Board a boat with a witty and experienced skipper!' The official description on the signs by the ride.

That along with our "Quest for giant carniverous bees, and chain saw wielding bears," she remained rather silent through that journey.
It was fun. At least for us!

Did you get his name? Nothing reminds you of going deeper and deeper into the jungle that might be eaten or attacked by pygmies and animals like Preparation H.

What time does the 3 o' Clock parade start?

We were on the last "cruise" of the evening in March (2008) and had a similiar experience - the guide was just a hoot. It was our son in law's first trip on Jungle Cruise and I think it likely spoiled him for any other guide.
It's so much fun when the cast members do a little entertaining.

This thread got me thinking, I think there's a Jungle Cruise ride through with a skipper named Jessica out in circulation. Not sure if it's our very own however. Search the usual places you get park audio, I'm sure you'll find it.

Really?
Can you send me a link in a PM? I can tell you if it's me or not.

Done

If it was taken in 2007, then it wouldn't have been me. I only started there in the last month. I'll listen to it in a bit.
-
I should wait to answer until we have final word, however, I wouldn't say it was a particularly good cruise.
-
Definitely not me.
I put a bit more emotion into mine. And my delivery is more dramatic....and sarcastic.

The skipper really does make the ride in my opinion. On my most recent trip I had an English (I believe) fella by the name of Roger and he was great. He was really into it and even though it was probably his 40th trip of the day, it was his first with us and he was very enthusiastic and witty.
And speaking of good lines, years ago I had a skipper talk about his previous job:
"I was an ex-orange juice factory worker but I got canned....they said I could not concentrate!"
I'll never forget that line.

That sounds like fun.I think I will have to give JC another try. We went on it once and really did not enjoy it, especially after the long, long line. The skipper said the jokes, but he was really kind of flat and emotionless, the kids liked the jokes, but I didn't enjoy it. I think we will have to give it another chance in october!

You have to take into account that some skippers will take their crowd into account - if the crowd groans, laughs, throws things, etc. at appropriate times in his/her spiel, then they will get into the mood more and make it more enjoyable for all. You get a bunch of "gloomy Gus's" on a boat and it brings the whole ride experience down.

LOL
I can't wait to get back!!
We ALWAYS take the last cruise of the evening (or close to it). Those are always more fun!!
