Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    First time surfing! Amazing time, great teacher
    Had a great time surfing in a solo lesson with Megan. She was encouraging when i was failing and succeeding. She celebrated my successes with me and gave me tips when i didnt quite get it. Managed a 50/50 wave catch rate because of her
    Shout out to Megan for making my first surfing experience so amazing. It truly felt like flying every time i stood up

    Whenuakura Island A+++
    These guys are great - excellent customer service. We freedom hired two kayaks - a dbl and a single. Once out at Whenuakura Island we waited for a group to go in before us. This meant we had the interior to ourselves. Awesome experience- highly recommend Pedal and Paddle!
