📋 About The Guardian Coach
The Guardian Coach (often called Guardian Angel) is a family-owned bus company that has become a familiar name on the roads linking Nairobi to Western Kenya and Nyanza. The business traces its roots to the Moturi family, who have been in transport for three generations. After the late Ong’era Moturi expanded the operation, his son Julius Mokaya Ong’era now serves as Executive Director.
The company began on the classic Nairobi–Nakuru–Kericho–Kisumu–Mbale–Kakamega corridor and steadily added more towns. Today it runs a large fleet of modern coaches and smaller executive shuttles, offering both passenger travel and parcel delivery. Its offices sit side-by-side with other major operators at the Railways Godowns on Haile Selassie Avenue, with a second busy booking point on River Road.
Travellers know Guardian for affordable fares, reclining seats, charging ports and a straightforward booking process — either online, by phone or at any of its many town offices. The company’s standing slogan, “The Best Ahead of the Rest,” captures the standard it sets for itself on safety, reliability and everyday customer care.
