What time does Jungle Cruise Close

[Shlov1]

We are going in 2 weeks and the touring plans schedule says to go on Jungle Cruise around 7pm (I can't remember the exact time right now). The clocks will not have changed by that time so it will be dark and I thought I remember Jungle Cruise closing around dark. Does anyone know how that works or a good rule of thumb for it? Thanks.

It's open after dark......we love it in the dark. More fun

No, Jungle Cruise still runs at night. Its actually pretty cool after dark.

Its Kilimanjaro Safari at AK that closes at dusk.

Kilimanjaro Safari (at Animal Kingdom) closes around dusk. Jungle Cruise in the dark is an experience unto itself.

Try to do it in the light and the dark. I agree it is sooo cool in the dark but there are also little things you can see in the day that you can not see at dark either.

I rode last night just before 9pm. I liked it much better at night but my 5 year old did not.

It's awesome at night! I'm fairly certain it's not open for EMH though.

The last time I went I went for the first time at night and it was SO cool! It's definitely a must do at light AND at night now!

I agree that Jungle Cruise at night is very cool. The boat skippers use a spotlight to point out the amazing things that you need to see. We also love to ride Big Thunder at night!

I have found the lines for the JC at night to be shorter then during the day, because alot of people think it closes at dark. I remember on our first trip, before really researching on dis boards, we thought it closed at dark and by chance asked them and found out no. And walked right onto a boat.

It's not closed during the night, but on OMDD, it closes at 11 PM.

The boats have spot lights on them and there are lights where needed on the various scenes.

In our experience, it is not open during hard-ticket events.

Yes, for some children (mine included still at 7) the Jungle Cruise gets very VERY real after dark.

On OMDD, it will be closing at 6am, not 11pm.
