Overview
Our excursion begins in Molde, the capital of the Romsdal province. Our journey takes us past Molde's popular hiking and skiing areas and the marble-studded mountains directly to Norway's most famous coastal road, the Atlantic Road. This unique and spectacular series of bridges connects numerous islands and reefs and was named Norway's Building of the Century in 2005. During a 30-minute photo stop, we have the opportunity to experience this interplay of nature and modern architecture up close. The tour continues along the breathtaking Hustadvika Coast, dotted with cliffs, reefs and sandy beaches. Our next stop will be at the delightful fishing village of Bud with a nice view on Bjørnsund Island. The next highlight is the 407m high Varden viewpoint. During the photo stop, a wonderful view of the fjord landscape with its countless small islands, the city and its impressive mountain panorama awaits us. Before we reach the harbor again, there is still time for a short city tour.

Did I expect Brooklin?

Nothing stunning the beach before the Atlantic highway (which is not as amazing as it seems) very pretty and deserves! Cute the bar

We did not enjoy the experience because the cruise did not reach port due to the storm. We did not even receive a brief reply when the situation was reported. We lost the money
Response from Host, Aug 2025
We are not an official MSC tour operator. Our product was feasible. We are sorry that you were unable to participate at such short notice.
Long day in bus, ok for what it is
748GeorgeS, Aug 2025
The tour was just ok. I think they did a good job but the Atlantic Road is not that impressive. Several bridges over a relatively short distance. The bus was comfortable but no bathroom. Many buses seem to go in a row and end up at all the same stops. They give you 20 min to take pictures but if you need to go to the bathroom the lines are so long it takes up the whole stop time. Seems like they should stagger the buses so it’s not so crowded at each stop. The guide was knowledgeable. There were some pretty landscapes but it took the whole day being bussed around in a large group and that in itself is not my favorite. If you enjoy being in a bus all day looking out the window you will love this.
Molde
