Alaska by Coupon

Choices

When planning a trip to Alaska, you likely want to fit in as many experiences as possible. One of the best ways to experience Alaska is through tours. These experts are trained to deliver the best possible trip.
However, some tours are not cheap, and it can be hard to do everything you want while staying within your Alaska vacation budget. This is where coupon books come in. There are two main coupon books in Alaska: The Northern Lights ($55) and the TourSaver ($99.95).

Understanding the Options

The Northern Lights is a locally owned business that offers discounts on tours, lodging, and food. Coupons can be removed from the book and then used. It offers a much wider range of coupons, including car rentals, gym access, event tickets, golf, and pet grooming.
Some of the highlights of the book are:
  • Glacier View Adventures offers 25% off a zip adventure for up to 6 people.
  • Alaska Railroad Corporation Supplies one complimentary one-way or round-trip ticket for the Denali Star Train, the Coastal Classic Train, or the Aurora Winter Train.
  • Palmer Musk Ox Farm gives a free admission when you purchase a second admission.
  • Orca Island Cabins provides 50% off your second night’s stay after you pay full price for the first.
The TourSaver offers discounts on tours and some lodging. It has a unique book number that can be used to claim discounts. However, these coupons can’t be removed, and the physical book must be present when you check in for your tour.
Some of the best offers included for the book are:
  • Alaska Railroad Corporation: Receive one free ticket when purchasing a second adult fare ticket with the same itinerary. This includes a one-way or round-trip ticket from Anchorage to Seward, Denali National Park, Fairbanks, Talkeetna, or Hurricane.
  • Alaska Sea Life Center allows the purchase of one full adult admission and another one free.
  • Kennecott Glacier Lodge provides $100 off when you book for two or more nights.
  • Gold Dredge 8 offers one free tour when you purchase a second tour.
