My trip to Osaka in September 2024 was a truly enriching experience and one of the highlights of my remote year journey. Ken is, by far, the best city manager I’ve encountered. His professionalism, extensive knowledge, fantastic personality, and thoughtful recommendations made my time in Osaka exceptional. The city itself is peaceful, safe, fun, and culturally vibrant, with amazing food and friendly people. I’m so glad I decided to visit! Ken, keep up the excellent work—I truly appreciate all your help, guidance, and incredible patience!
I have done many 1-month RY programs and I would rate my experience in Valencia among the best. Marina goes above and beyond to organize, plan, communicate, and make sure all visitors have a fantastic time. She is incredibly kind. The trip vendors RY works with were also all fantastic. They were so nice and hospitable and wanted to make sure you had a great time on the trip. And the experiences/add-ons that can be booked were also very unique and among my favorites. The city is also very beautiful and manageable!
I've done Multiple Remote Year trip, and the most recent one to Valencia Spain was one of the best. The group was great, and the city manager Marina is so warm and welcoming. I haven't been to Barcelona or Madrid, but many people from the group took side trip and came back saying that they preferred the chiller vibe of Valencia.
Had a great time in Valencia! Marina and Josh were excellent host!
The people involved are amazing , very knowledgeable and are always looking out for you ! I would 100% recommend anyone who’s interested in doing a trip like this to go to Valencia you’ll have a great time guaranteed.
A 4 month Remote Year Journey through Europe and Africa is the best way to experience 4 months in 4 different countries over 2 continents with Remote Year. During these 4 months we had a chance to visit Cape Town, Split, Valencia and Tirana. This was a perfect mix of experiencing Africa and Europe a great combination of countries and experiencing different cultures. Each of these cities offer something unique from the mountains to the beaches.
The on the ground city team in each of these cities were knowledgable, helpful and very friendly. They made you feel at home in their country always offering helpful suggestions and different ways to experience the country. Each of the experiences were well curated in each of the destinations. The accommodations in the apartments were all really nice, comfortable and had everything needed for a stay for the month. The coworking locations were all centrally located and made it easy to be productive for work.
Having done a 4 month journey through LatAm previously as well a several one month programs through LatAm, Europe and Africa this was such an enjoyable experience as a 4 month program. Mula was a amazing 4 month Remote Year Journey. Our traveling Community Leader, Florencia created a family oriented, friendly, inclusive, caring community within Mula. She constantly cared about the community creating events to build the community so others could get to know each other. Was always there for everyone and just created such an experience on this journey that I will never forget. This Mula journey may have been a lot different had she not been the Community Leader for it. She really made the Mula journey and community what it was and it's something that I will never forget. This was such an amazing journey that I will always keep in my heart. With memories that will last forever and creating life long friendships. Thank you Florencia, all of the city teams and Remote Year for this once in a life time experience.
Anyone wants to stay 1 month+ for anywhere in the world, you have to choose remote year. I was in Valencia for a month in June and had an amazing time of my life there. Company is professional yet make sure that you are well prepared for the trip with all documentation, you meet the people you will spend time there before even the journey starts, receive so many tips and if you choose your accommodation with Remote Year, they really make sure it suits your needs.
We had an amazing,loveliest and sweetest city manager Marina. Her professionalism towards to the group was impeccable and she always tailored & curated personalized trips for our people. We did explore the city with so many events and always ready to answer our questions.
Im so grateful to meet her and our friends in the group. If you have any hesitations to book, just DO.IT.NOW! there is no other better company to do with it.
I was in Valencia for the month of June and it was my first RY trip. Despite being super introverted, I had so much fun on this trip! Marine was amazing and helped me out so much with everything! The weekend activities were really fun as well. The best part of this was the people that I met. Everybody was super friendly and nice and I would 100% recommend RY Valencia to all my remote working friends. I had cut the trip short because of an extenuating circumstance and RY was really kind to give me some credit as well. I’ve already booked my next trip and I can’t wait!
I spent June '24 in Valencia and it was easily the best travel experience I've ever had. My Community Manager, Marina, was an absolute gem and all of the events were so interesting and unique. I lucked out with meeting a fantastic group of humans from all around the world and am leaving with some lifelong friends. I cannot recommend Remote Year enough.
I have absolutely no regrets about using Remote Year. Valencia was a beautiful and welcoming city. Our city leader was the friendliest, most wonderful person who genuinely cared about making everyone’s experience fantastic. The people on the trip with me were one-of-a-kind and so outgoing and adventurous. On this trip I experienced so much of the culture, enjoyed such amazing and delicious food, made such incredible friends, and am taking home treasured and lasting memories. I highly recommend Remote Year and the city of Valencia!
So i was referred to join RY by a friend. Never heard of them before.
But after having spent this experience, i would say wow!
Is it Valencia, is it the city guide (Marina), is it the group? Hehe in over all it has been amazing.
Valencia is a great city to spend this experience, the culture, the vibe, the food, the friendliness of the people.
Our group was very homogeneous, so we really got along.
Our city guide Marina, she was super !! She’s an amazing person, very welcoming, very knowledgeable about the city and always there to support.
Can’t thank her enough.
Overall we went there with zero expectations, we left with a lifetime memory and friends.
Incredible experience with RY. I absolutely loved Valencia and our two group leaders: Marina and Flo. They were extremely welcoming and made the transition seamless.
Valencia is a great city to stay for a month, and local team especially Marina is amazing, always responsive and willing to help!
I've done one 4-month trip through LatAm and two 1-month programs (Cape Town, Valencia).
RY does their very best to make the experiences fun, inclusive, and exciting. I was going through a hard time personally at the start of my 4-month trip. I initially planned to only participate in 1-month but I stayed on for 4. Some of the friends that I made along the way are now very close friends of mine. If you're thinking of doing it, DO IT
I truly enjoyed my first (of many) trips with Remote Year in Valencia! I enjoyed discovering the history of the city, practicing my Spanish, wandering around the beautiful architecture & museums, as well as discovering multiple avenues to nurture my creativity. Valencia is a beautiful, magical place and I'm happy I had such a wonderful team to support & help me navigate my month there.
Love love loved Spain!! My time in Spain was absolutely wonderful! Our community leader, Marina, was amazing and made us truly feel apart of the community! Las Fallas was such a cool thing to experience and 100% recommend coming during March!
My 2nd trip with RY and another amazing experience!
The combo of Fallas, Valencia and our leader Marina was unbeatable!!
I highly recommend visiting Valencia, Fallas if you love to party and enjoy the festivies and Marina was the icing on the cake with her warm personality and always there to help!
Can't wait to book another RY trip soon!
Would highly recommend! A beautiful city coupled with the incredible experience of Las Fallas all brought together perfectly by the most amazing host made for an experience I would urge you to take up!
The accommodation and co-working exceeded expectations and with plenty of sights and excursions on offer, there's no shortage of things to do.
Marina, the Valencian RY Leader, really did take the trip to the next level though. Her hospitality and patience coupled with her local knowledge meant any advice or guidance you could possibly want was never more than a friendly text away, a real pleasure to spend time with!
If you do opt for the March trip make sure you'll be comfortable with all the festivities, there's lots happening all day and night which is incredible to experience but can be overwhelming if that's not what you're looking for, however you can dip in and out as much as you want. Also, if you're on a European work timezone make sure you plan your week in advance as many of the activities will be during the day, so you may need to schedule meetings etc accordingly.
If you've never been to Valencia, or even if you have, definitely put this trip on the to-do list!
Valencia, Spain in March (during Fallas) —an exhilarating time of year. Rich in Valencia’s history and culture. The accommodations were extraordinary: modern, well-furnished (coffee maker, washer, comfortable seating and beds, etc.) The local experiences were wonderful. Marina (community leader) connected us with some amazing professionals for everything from cooking lessons to the history and politics of Fallas.
This was my first Remote Year trip. The others in my group were diverse in age, backgrounds, and careers. Most people prioritized their work/work hours, so you are able to be quite productive without having to swim upstream. And there were plenty of opportunities to socialize and thoroughly enjoy the city throughout the month. I’m actually writing this review on the last day of my trip. If April had any availability at all, I would just stay here one more month!
Valencia was an experience well worth exploring. Marina couldn't have been a better community leader.
If you're on the fence, quit hesitating.
Pull the trigger, now.
This is my 4th month in the last 12 months with Remote Year and my second time visiting Valencia. I've truly enjoyed spending time with other travelers exploring new cities and sharing experiences.
This is truly the experience of a lifetime. Valencia has so much history, culture, architecture, food & nightlife. Not to mention the massive beaches that rival California. We were at the center of it all. Our community leader went above and beyond to plan many community events and we all took away new friendships. 10/10 recommend and would go again.
The Valencia month and group was amazing and surpassed all expectations (!!) Marina was the absolute best community leader, going above and beyond, making sure our group was getting the most out of our time in Spain. The only thing I would have changed is working less so that I could have enjoyed more of the excursions 😆 Forever grateful for my time spent in the city and for all of the amazing connections fostered with our group
Amazing experience! Marina in Valencia, Spain is the ABSOLUTE best. Loved every single moment of my time spent with Remote Year
A life-changing experience.
The Remote Year month in Valencia was one of the best and most impactful experiences of my life. The leaders of the group planned and facilitated many opportunities to get to know the city and fellow travelers. We learned about the amazing food and culture of Valencia and the experience was so much more fun with our new friends.
Marina was such a pleasure to get to know and spend time with while in Valencia. Her kindness, knowledge and willingness to always help made our time so special!
I recently had the incredible opportunity to spend a month in Valencia as part of the Remote Year program, and I cannot emphasize enough how amazing this experience was. Valencia is a city that captivates you with its charm, and what made it truly unforgettable was the exceptional guidance and care provided by our city leaders, Marina and Julio.
From the moment we arrived, Marina and Julio welcomed us with open arms and genuine warmth. They went above and beyond to ensure that our month in Valencia was nothing short of extraordinary.
My experience with València ry exceeded my expectations. I’ve been on many trips with remote year but what I always find to be the best experience while traveling with them is that when the city managers really care about the quality time and getting to know the travelers. To them they see us as their friends rather than customers, and that to me is a special relationship because you not only get amazing advice and service from ry team but you also get a local friend. Every week and sometimes multiple times a week they would create dinner parties and cafe group get togethers to help create a strong and stable community. And they would also help challenge you with language learning by making Spanish speaking only cafe lunch where they challenge you to learn Spanish and order in Spanish. I truly loved and enjoyed this experience as a whole and even better I am very confident that when I do come back to live in Spain for 90 days I already have a community and friends🥰
Marina, our community leader in Valencia, was absolutely incredible and made Spain feel like home. This program is extremely special and gives you the opportunity to experience the country as a real local. I felt safe the entire month, and accommodations were fantastic. 10/10 would recommend
