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.

I booked this for my family very quickly and soon roped in my sister. We took three little kids in the front seat of 2-person sea kayaks. We saw stingrays, Eagles, fish, trees, mangroves, mountains. it was stunning. Add to this the bonus of Paul — a true delight, who showed great respect for our indigenous culture and who showed the utmost humour and respect for me, my kiddos and everyone else on the tour. The snacks were spot on too, thanks Paul! It was not the cheapest day out, but it was well worth it and the photo memories sent later that evening will remind us of a true highlight of our holiday. Many thanks, Paul. And if you find my stripy hat that I forgot to tie onto my head properly, gimme a buzz! :)

Recently myself and two friends had the pleasure of embarking on the half day E-MTB Experience. We thoroughly enjoyed the adventure and it totally surpassed our expectations.
Paul was our guide, teacher, motivator and humourist and without a doubt was instrumental in making the whole experience one to remember.
The equipment provided was first class and Paul stepped us through the basics of the mechanical side of things and how to operate the bikes efficiently. He then took us on a guided tour over a range of graded tracks. As our skill levels and confidence grew he introduced us to some more challenging tracks. We were impressed with the power of the silent electric motors but found there is still plenty of scope to manually push the pedals. By the end of the day we were fatigued nut exhilarated. We are all looking forward to returning for a repeat dose. Thank you to Paul and By Earth and Ocean.

Our family of four had a super fun day with Paul in the Noosa Area. It was definitely a highlight of our 21 day trip to Australia. We started the morning with a peaceful kayak trip around Noosa, had some quick snacks then headed to a cute coffee shop en route to the hinterlands where we would start the biking. None of us had ever used electric bikes and we weren’t experienced mountain bikers but it was so much fun and we had tons of laughs along the way. Paul was super patient, professional, well organized, adaptable, yet kept if informal and fun. The perfect guide. We finished the day with 10 or so wine tastings at the Dingo Creek Vineyard and an amazing huge late afternoon lunch. It was a little overcast and we did get a bit of drizzle but it didn’t impact the day at all. Great trip no matter the weather! Would highly recommend.

Paul took us on a gentle kayak to see the stingrays in Lake Weyba, Noosaville.
He's super friendly host and genuinely cared about the experiences of everyone on the trip. From the explanations of the stingrays and wildlife, to stories of the First Nations people we were enthralled every step of the way.
It was a wonderful experience and would do it again in a heartbeat. We saw so many stingrays! It was a beautiful morning - thanks Paul!

Today we managed to finish the 2 hour mountain bike guided trail. All four of us had a great time and the two 15 year olds rate it as the best thing we've done this holiday. We were really well looked after and (as non mountain bikers) thoroughly enjoyed it.
I cannot recommend this enough, if you can only fit in one trip out make sure it's this one.

We booked a kayak activity with Paul at Lake Weyba. The lake is beautiful and peaceful, it is a perfect place for anyone who wants to enjoy nature. Paul is really friendly and knowledgeable. We had a fantastic time, will book again for other activities next time when we are in Noosa. Highly recommend.

We were offered a free kayak tour after the operator mistakenly booked the wrong date for an e-bike tour and weren't really expecting much from the kayak tour, since we'd both been kayaking saltwater on the East Coast before, and we figured one shallow saltwater estuary lined with mangroves is pretty much the same as another. But while we were familiar with saltwater estuaries we didn't expect to see quite that many stingrays! We must have seen 40-50 and in less than 30cm of water at low tide, it's really something as they emerge from the mud and go flicking suddenly away, right underneath your kayak. Good fun. Special mention to our guide CeCe, who really pulled out all stops to make this an entertaining and enjoyable experience for everyone. She played games with us, brought out the snacks in a nice shady spot, and was always cheerful, informative and engaging. Really enjoyed meeting her and she made the day.

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review Alan.
After that horrible human error of putting your tour on the wrong day, I'm so glad to here that we could make it up to you with a great experience out on the Kayaks.
Thanks for the kind words and CeCe will be so happy to get this feedback
Safe Travels,
Paul & CeCe (By Earth & Ocean)

My wife & I recently did an E-Mountain Bike tour through the Noosa National Park with Paul from By Earth & Ocean. Firstly it is not a tour more of an adventure experience as you have to ready to get sweaty but don't let that discourage you as they are electric bikes which make the experience incredibly enjoyable. We had the best afternoon with Paul & highly recommend this activity to anyone. The bikes are awesome, the tracks are great fun & a little challenging (which made it more fun) & Paul is a great guy who knows his stuff. I read a review beforehand where someone said that it made them feel like a kid again & they were right. Awesome experience, thanks Paul. Steve & Ange

My partner and parents did a half day hire of the e-bikes at Tewantin and it was an absolute blast! The e-bikes are a must if planning to ride the trails at Tewantin as there is a lot of long climbs that the motor assistance makes light work of and lets you explore most if not all the trails on offer in a morning. Paul the owner was very helpful throughout the booking process and was there ready for us on the day. He had all the equipment we'd need plus spares and was easily contactable if required. Would highly recommend to anyone and of all skill levels.

Hello Earth & Ocean. I am very interested in the potential to book a group tour, but would like to correspond privately about this; your website is under construction and no email address (so a little perturbed); can you please provide contact details so I can email and/or call about a potential group booking for this December?

Hi,
Thanks so much for getting in contact and my apologies that it wasn't easy to find my contact details. Tripadvisor stops links to external sites incl email address' but you can reach me directly on;

Also feel free to jump onto Facebook/Instagram/Google and I believe all 3 of these are set up to also feed directly to me.
Love to help out and take you on a tour so shoot through any questions you have
Thanks
Paul
