Testimonials

I can't say enough good things about my recent trek to New Zealand. It was very well organized with plenty of planned shoots at beautiful vistas as well as time for spontaneous fun and photography lessons. Mentor Reed Hoffmann did an outstanding job of answering all our questions and sharing his wealth of knowledge on everything from techie tips on SD versus CF cards to how to get the best image of the southern night sky. It was an incredible vacation slash learning experience that I won't ever forget. What I liked best was how everyone in the group was willing to share their knowledge and expertise to help other trekkers make great images. I would recommend the Nikon Mentor Series Treks to anyone who is interested in photography at any level.

The Iceland trek was very well organized. It gave us the opportunity to encounter both beautiful vistas and interesting people. We had an excellent guide and driver. The locations were well chosen and made for a great learning experience. Thanks for a wonderful trek.

I want to say this was one of the most fun trips I've ever taken......8 flights in 18 days, miles on the bus and many many stairs! I enjoyed every minute! I want to thank Michelle from the Mentor Series, Bill, Corey & Reed, the Nikon pros and all the guides. I learned so much from the mentors. Too all my fellow trekkers; it was awesome reconnecting and make new ones! Pandas and the Wall will forever be the best moments!
