Thank you again for a wonderful trek. We both had so much fun. After spending 2 weeks trying the D7000, I was sad to have to package it so we can return it. But Tim just surprised me by saying that he just ordered one. :D. I can't wait to see everyone and try out my new camera on the China 2012 trek.

I wanted to thank you for all the work you put into the Hawaii trek. I had SUCH a good time – my coworkers are getting tired of hearing about it! I can’t believe how much we did in only a week. I loved the zip lining, and the airplane and the sunset cruise. Oh, and the luau too. And learning some stuff, too, of course! Thanks again and I hope to see you on a trek in the future.

I cannot tell you how much fun I had this past weekend! It was a "hat trick" as they say in hockey - a triple-play....education, opportunity and enjoyment!! You can't beat that!! I already have two friends who now want to go on future treks because I can't shut up about it!! So, many thanks for everything!!

Just got back from a trek to Switzerland and Italy. Fantastic time was had by all. Brought my photography up a notch and met great friends. I'm looking forward to attending another trek soon.

The Nikon mentors were true professionals and excellent instructors. Each had a genuine love of photography and a sincere desire to share their knowledge and experience with all who attended. The program was so well set up and coordinated that I feel and I saw and photographed every major high light of this great city during this short period of time. Our group was fortunate to have private access to generally restricted areas such as Grand Central Station and "The Top of the Rock" Rockefeller center. To photograph the cityscape from the Top of the Rock at dawn was truly amazing. I will definitely be attending more of the Nikon Mentor Series in the future.

"One can travel by himself to the location of the trek but you will be hard press to have the same photography experience since the treks are great in providing unique settings and models/props. If you are serious about photography, attending a Mentor Series Trek is must."

"I have been on two international and one domestic trek since 2007. These treks are an incredible experience, an I have made many new friends. The mentors have been fantastic, and I have learned a lot. The images from the treks have been among my best. I plan on going on many more treks in the future and would recommend them to anyone who has a desire for photography."
