Jungle Tour

The Jungle Tour was the eighteenth tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on May 20, 2020 and ended on June 2, 2020. Reflecting its theme around jungles and the Donkey Kong Country series, Dixie Kong made her playable Mario Kart debut and Funky Kong returned after his only Mario Kart playable appearance in Mario Kart Wii, while also adding the Rambi Rider from Mario Kart DS. This was the first tour that did not add any new tracks or any new track variants. The menu's background featured Noshi as the landmark for this tour. Despite being themed after Dino Dino Jungle, however, DK Pass appears as the tour's signature track.

Starting with this tour, each of the cups' tracks and bonus challenges are able to be completed in any order, without the need to complete the previous race beforehand.

Signature kart sets
In every cup, the driver which the cup is themed about is raised a tier on each track, making them a three- or two-item driver on that course. Up until the Ice Tour, a kart and a glider were also given a bonus for each race in the cup.

Rewards
Gold cells indicate rewards exclusive to Gold Pass members.
