For those who might not know, the Mark Twain Riverboat is a classic attraction at Disneyland Park. It’s a full-scale replica of the old steam-powered riverboats that were a big deal back in the 19th century. Guests can hop on and take a leisurely 12-minute journey around Pirate’s Lair on Tom Sawyer Island along the Rivers of America. As you glide along the water, you’ll see stunning views including:

  • The north bank of the Columbia Gorge
  • A frontier cabin 
  • A Native American village 
  • A variety of wildlife

Refurbishments are slated from time to time for all attractions to update effects, refresh paint, and ensure attractions remain in working order. During the Mark Twain Riverboat’s most recent attraction, the boat was docked over at Pelican’s Landing where it received a fresh coat of paint as well as some other much-needed TLC.
