Company History
Skyline Eco-Adventures was founded in 2002 by father and son, Buck and Danny Boren in Maui, Hawaii. It was their dream to share their love for the outdoors with others through an exciting new adventure experience that would thrill customers while highlighting the importance of preserving Hawaii's fragile environment, and making significant contributions to those preservation efforts.
When Skyline opened the United States' first zipline tour just minutes from Haleakala National Park, few people knew what to expect from this new high-flying activity. During the first month of operations, Skyline Eco-Adventures welcomed only 6 paying customers. As the months went by, a buzz began . . . and with it came adventure seekers from all over. As popularity grew Skyline launched its second location, The Ka'anapali Skyline Adventure, high above Maui's Ka'anapali Resort.
Beginning in 2007, Skyline Eco-Adventures took its commitment to environmental preservation to a new level by making a commitment to become a "carbon neutral" operation, making it the World's first and only zipline operator actively fighting global warming. In 2009, Skyline celebrated its 1,000,000th customer zipline crossing, marking an unprecedented level of operational safety and experience in this new industry. That same year, Skyline rolled out the zipline industry's first comprehensive franchise program, providing interested parties who meet Skyline's selective criteria with the opportunity to own their own Skyline Eco-Adventures tour, and bring Skyline's unique blend of adventure and eco-tourism to their favorite travel destination.
