Absolutely get the book. We have gotten one every other year since 2000. When friends and family come up (three times) they also got the book even for a two week stay and saved money.

Agree get it early on-line and also understand what you have. Their organization doesn't work real well FOR ME when planning stuff so I have put the info into a spread sheet (oh, how left brain can you get!).

We have done things we would not have done and been very happy as a result. Of course, it will depend on your interests but we have taken multiple whale tours out of Valdez, Homer and Seward; we have done the Discovery I,II, or III several times and also the Gold Mine thing where you get a 'seeded' bag and do your own panning. We have landed on a glacier below Denali and can't remember what all else.

Have a great time. We are still dithering on what to do this summer to get out of the Texas heat.

We have used the TourSaver Coupon book on 3 trips. Have saved between $700 and a 1,000 each time. It is primarily for tours, fishing, cruises, museums, etc. Do not remember any restaurant coupons in it. There is a coupon book available that is primarily restaurants but I don't remember what it is.

The TourSaver is available online and at Carr's Supermarkets in Alaska. You can go to the TourSaver website and look at all of the coupons in the book. If interested, I would recommend buying it online before you leave because there are coupons that can be used before you get to a Carr's store.

Fulltimers. No more grass to cut, no more leaves to rake, and can move if we don't like our neighbors.

Have driven or camped in 49 states. Have camped in all Provinces in Canada.

Absolutely if your doing the things you have listed for two people. In most cases the second person is free. From what I've seen you use it once and it's paid for.

We'll be leaving on our trip July 1.
Good luck
