★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 198 reviews · 4 hours · from $124

Review of Molde’s Atlantic Ocean Road and Bud tour, with fjord views, coastal stops, Varden Panorama, practical tips, and honest drawbacks.

“The tour was good - Atlantic Ocean Road, the visit to the fishing village, and photo stop on high point overlooking Molde. Our guide was Excellent and full of information! BUT I didn’t see mentioned (or missed) that 90% of the time was on the bus. Each stop was only 15 minutes, and the rest was bus travel time. The scenery was great, and the guide excellent, but I might have chosen a different tour if I understood the driving times.”

“This was a highlight from our Norther Europe cruise. We were picked up at a convenient spot near the center of town.
