The Darwen Visionaire is a bus body built by the Darwen Group. It was in terms of engineering an open top Olympus (itself a double-deck variant of the Esteem) in all but name. A single decker open top, the Panaire, is also produced.
Originally the East Lancs Visionaire, after East Lancs went into administration, they were bought by the Darwen Group, and the body was subsequently renamed the Darwen Visionaire.
The first orders for the original East Lancs version were made in November 2006 by Arriva's The Original Tour for a £1.6 million order for ten, built on Volvo's B9TL Euro 4 chassis. These are all now in service and are the only orders so far.
