Travel in Style is its motto, Modern Coast is considered the parent to luxurious buses and it has managed to keep up with the pace. The long-distance coach is one of the oldest coaches in Kenya and most of the older coaches have already closed down since they never created room for advancement.

The company started in 1985 as a logistics company and since then it has maintained a trend that ensures they are up to date with buses and technology. Modern Coast Express, operates under the umbrella of the Modern Coast Group of Companies. Its approach to innovation, restructuring, and technology has played a major role in the growth of the company.

Their transportation services, extend beyond Kenya as it also operates in Uganda and Tanzania.  Being a long-distance coach, comfort is its priority, their buses feature a fitted air conditioner, Wi-Fi connection, reclining seats and if you have someone with disability the bus can also accommodate persons with disability.
