Which is Spain’s BEST City Valencia or Malaga 2024

Honestamente, me preocupa la gentrificación muchas veces que veo estos vídeos…

Así es el Rico Primer Mundo de €spaña.❤

Málaga esta muy bonita pero ha pagado un precio muy alto, en fechas señaladas es agobiante la cantidad de gente que hay.

Great video, gracias muchachos !!!

Valencia winner!! Visca Valencia!!!

Exactly that is what I noticed when I was in Marbella few weeks ago at area called San Pedros, it was very disgusting

Valencia all day👌🏽

both are part of the suburbs of Bilbao.

We love both Malaga & Valencia. On the cleanliness question, go to Oviedo if you want to see a really clean city in Spain.

Well done, both of you!

wow

Thanks for an interesting duo video. I'm a fan of both of you. Regarding beaches, Nerja has much choice. I really like the beach of Fuengirola to the South of the marina, very nice!

Sorry Almería is mejor ciudad of de World 😅😂❤muchas tapas baratas

2 great u tubers

I love you all ❤

I love Valencia & am an ex-pat, though Russafa is seriously overrated & seems to have am ex-pat obsession. Fine to visit, but I would not choose to live there 24/7. There are other parts of Valencia that are much cheaper and have more of a sense of community!

Random question but what languages do you speak? Btw like your accent lol

Fantastic video, you two! And a great honest comparison between the two cities. I was in Malaga last February but not in Valencia yet. I believe you are from SoCal, @Antoanetta - what about comparing San Diego to Valencia. I think it would be interesting.

Soy valenciano y amo mi ciudad por muchísimos motivos , conozco malaga y es preciosa , que voy a decir si tengo descendencia andaluza
Conozco mucho Andalucía y para vivir elegiría valencia sin dudas
Pero eso si , sin menos preciar a malaga que para mi es la la segunda mejor ciudad de España sin dudas para vivir
Valencia es una ciudad llana y muy estensa , así que los turistas nos se masifican en una zona sin no en varios puntos de la ciudad , lo que la hace menos estresante
Tb diría que cualquier ciudad de España es perfecta para vivir sin duda!!!!

Why does that guy even live in Malaga? He seems to hate the place...

Какво мялка българката... From far a way she is bulgara

Stop tipping in Europe. You are ruining everything for the locals.

cool！

@ANTOANETTA NOW & @AdventureElliot These are the 2 cities my wife, 2 college-age daughters, & I are contemplating moving to from Florida, USA...if we lose our democracy in this November, 2024 election, we're coming to Spain (where we've traveled a couple times in the past...Madrid, Barcelona, Girona, & Segovia)...and LOVED it! We're very nervous about this horrible political environment here in the USA (I know it sounds crazy, and we never thought we would ever be in this precarious situation) as things seem to get worse & worse here by the day, now July, 15, 2024. My wife is originally from Dominican Republic so Spanish is HER first language, although admittedly, our daughters and I mainly speak English (I'm born & raised just West of Boston, MA but have been living in Florida since I was 18 and I'm now 55), but we feel we can all pick up enough Spanish to get us by. Is there a local University in Malaga or would it be better for our youngest daughter to possibly look at University of Valencia? Our oldest daughter is starting an online MBA program so she can be based anywhere with high-speed Internet. Which city would be better for our college-age daughters in terms of social atmosphere and safety? Which city would be better for my wife and I in terms of the social scene for people close to retirement? If we move to Spain, it would likely be one of these two cities and we may rent while we're looking for a home to buy and sorting out our VISAS. THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH as I thoroughly enjoyed this video!!!

I loved both! Congratulations on the video!
For those who enjoy sports (mountain biking, trail running) and beach sports (kitesurfing), which of the 2 cities do you think you would enjoy the most?
And which beach?

Malvarosa in Valencia has unnessarily huge width. Looks empty, with very limited facilities, very primitive "restaurants" that I would rather call cafes. Send is fine, pretty clean of rubbish, no broken shells, but very dusty. I have never seen this anywhere else. You can see it in a water too, where the waves break. Water looks dirty and not transparent at those places, where waves brake. There is a prominade, but its arranged in a very stupid way: sea is very far, and nothing on the city side, but horrible gypsy area and a lot of few centuries old ugly 2-3 floors houses, falling apart. Dangerous area too. Another thing: downtown is very far from the beach. So, either, or, not both together. Instead, the proper and cozy arrangement should be kind of Alicante, Malaga, Benidorm style - not extremely wide beach, promenade along the beach, so you can enjoy the water proximity, and downtown with real restaurants right on the other side of the promenade. Valencia fails on all if this. Really uncomfortable arrangement. I was dissapointed.
Green? Valencia is very dry, Turia park looks dry too. All parks have a dusty roads instead of tiles, so your shoes are always dusty.
If you want to see really green places, visit the north of Spain! Costa Blanca and Costa de Sol are dry, mountains are bold.

Hey Antoanetta, Where are you from originally? You mentioned LA which is where i'm from, but i hear an accent.

We didn't make it to Malaga, but we spent a lot of time in Valencia. We loved the river area between the Science Building and to the Ocean near the Zoo where they have a long park that's
very well done. I remember walking all the way to the Zoo, but the zoo seemed so small and expensive, so I told the family we'll just visit the zoo when we return to Phoenix that has an excellent zoo that's reasonable. We walked EVERYWHERE in Valencia and enjoyed it a lot - a good friend that used to work for me lives there and we stayed with him and he traveled with us, too, along with two of our daughters. Oh, my wife Antonia is from Brasil, so she really enjoyed travel in Spain and in Portugal.

There's a beach North of Valencia that's nicer, so I usually went there; then, once for fireworks it was the best place to go. There's a shopping center there and also a large condo project and, furthermore, a pleasure harbor, too. This was nice for restaurants and beach goiners.

Love your content… been a while since any new ones… hope everything is good.. ❤

We miss your videos! We were in Valencia for the first time and loved it. We have your guide and checked out Gran Via, El Carmen and so many recommendations of yours. We loved the Almalibre Acai House! We need more of your wisdom. I hope you come back soon.

Having been to both cities many times, without and with our children, I'd pick Málaga everytime. Yes, Valencia has the Turia park. Both the Malagueñas are way more friendly, and welcoming. In general, I find people in Valencia very closed and unfriendly. Hostile even. Especially wit hchildren, you really notice the difference between people from Valencia and Malagueñas. Also, there's more sun in Málaga ;)

I was thinking Malaga because a tiny bit warmer in winter and quaint, lower cost of living, BUT THEN I saw the beaches of Valencia - that did it for me. That's like Coronado Island in San Diego - football field sizes lol. - Valencia wins

Gran vídeo Antoanetta con Elliot✌🏻

I have missed you I’d been watching you since the beginning from Los Angeles how do I find your jewlery

Does anyone know what happened to Antoanetta? It’s been a while since her last video. I hope she’s fine…

Neither if you are a Jew , or someone who does not support Hamas and the rape and murder of innocents.

There is no best. They are both fabulous, just different.

Es como comparar new york con Washington..not posible😂

Alot of Chunga cochinos in Valencia, Don't know how to use rubbish Bin

Q: What city offers better weather in autumn, winter and spring? Where can you sit late in the evening outside without vest because it gets chilly ?

Malaga is andalusia you can't fine better weather then andalusia Málaga...malaga is the love

I’m sad there are no new videos 😢

Hey sis.

I just found out that there was flooding over there. I hope that you and your crew are ok. (Air hug)

Me and my wife saw what’s happening… praying for you and the people of Valencia…

Are you ok?
I read the news about the flood disaster in Valencia...

Antoanetta, are you ok over there in Valencia? I hope so.

Unfortunately, this is what Valencian regional bureaucracy looks like. Too many chiefs; not enough Indians to lead properly. This is a tragedy of epic proportion that will have an economic impact on Valencia for years to come. It will take incredible urban planning measures for this not to happen again. The immediate impact on jobs, lives and property’s is unimaginable. Paiporta is a hardworking blue collar community, this is an unimaginable loss that was preventable. Animo Valencia, we hear your pain!

That's funny; I've been to Malaga a couple of times and never encountered dog poop or pee on the pavements or anywhere. I couldn't see a single cigarette butt in the streets, and I wasn't staying only in the center. Valencia, on the other hand—I have been living here for almost two years—is disgusting in regards to the stench of pee and poop at every corner. There are plenty of smokers who just throw away their cigarettes everywhere, without even putting them out. It's utterly disgusting.

And yes, I'm seriously considering moving to Malaga.
