We just got back from a family Alaska vacation with our two boys ages 8 and 11. We hiked Matanuska Glacier, watched salmon spawn at a fish hatchery, did a river float on the Kenai, played at a playground with an epic view in Seward, panned for food at Hatcher Pass, and hunted for fireweed ice cream wherever we went. I had binged this podcast prior to booking anything. Before listening to the podcast, Alaska seemed so unattainable to me, but we were able to put together an affordable adventurous itinerary for a fraction of the cost of a cruise, largely due to Jenny’s podcast and one of her Zoom trip planning sessions. Thank you for the family memories Jenny!
I found this podcast when planning an Alaska trip was still a dream. I’ve loved listening to Jennie (and sometimes Jay) talk about their experiences in Alaska. Guests on the show are interesting and informative. The only problem is Jennie has taught me that we can’t see it all in one trip. I guess we will have to start thinking about a second! (Also join her on Patreon- the planning club is fun and others will ask questions that you didn’t know you had.)
Love Jennie’s show. I’ve been tuning in every week for the past year or so to plan our 2026 trip. She’s been extraordinarily helpful with tips and discounts.
Jennie does a wonderful job of not only being incredibly informative, but in providing balanced, complete information to help her listeners make the decisions which best suit their own needs and preferences. She (and Jay) have helped me be better prepared for my 2026 trip, but inspired me to start planning a 2028 one too!
