Visitingwrld Reviews 29

What an incredible experience. Although I was reluctant to even give it the time of day, the Visiting Wrld retreat to Bali ended up becoming one of the most memorable trips I’ve ever had. Joe and Jasper were very great to work with preceding the trip and made booking the experience an absolute breeze. The accommodations were BREATHTAKING — they really put a lot of thought behind that element alone. We never once had to worry about ride accommodations, food, activities, or needs on this trip; they made absolute sure of that! The bonding experience with the rest of the crew was incredible as well and I can say that I’ve certainly made a lot of new friends for life. In all, I can, with 100% confidence, say that if you are unsure about embarking on a journey with the team, they will put your concerns to rest even before you get to your destination — the rest is an added bonus. I personally can’t wait to join them on another trip this year and hopefully this will be your encouragement to stop thinking about it and do the same!

Visiting Wrld is such an incredible and invaluable experience. When I went I was a little nervous at first but the team and the other retreaters made me feel so safe and cared about. I can not stop recommending this to people. If you can go, do it. You will not regret it

I had the opportunity to travel with Visiting Wrld this past week to Costa Rica for their fitness retreat and had one of the best experiences of my life.

First, the staff are very quick to respond to questions about logistics and ensuring safe travel to and from the event spaces and housing. They are very knowledgeable about the area(s) you visit and are approachable if you have questions, comments, or concerns regarding your experience with them.

Second, they have created a community that thrives on diverse perspectives and values new and experienced people. The entire time I was there with them, they had been working on ensuring the retreaters had an easy and seamless experience. Consistent check-ins and feedback were always appreciated and they tried to improve the experience during the trip.

Third, and finally, the fitness experience was challenging and educational. Joe and Jasper are really great trainers and knowledgeable about how to improve physical fitness, nutrition, and general health. They really try to help take small, sustainable steps to fit the lifestyle goals you have. I’ve had personal training in the past that’s focused on a cookie cutter program, but this is not that. From when you sign up until you leave the retreat, they really prioritize helping you improve.

Easily one of the best international travel experiences I’ve had and 100% worth the investment. I would highly recommend Visiting Wrld to anyone who has the chance to experience world travel with like-minded people.

The best vacation I invested in! I got to meet people from all across the states and across the world. It was the best way that I can get away, have fun but stick to my fitness plan at the same time. Joe and the crew took care of all of us and made us feel comfortable. The ambiance was peak! Can’t wait to book my next one.

Wow what an amazing experience. I got to work in my self physically, emotionally, and socially surrounded by a group of incredible individuals. Visiting WRLD was an experience I’ll never forget and I hope to come back!!!

I don’t even know where to start this experience was next level. I came into this retreat solo, not knowing a single person, just looking to challenge myself and reset. What I walked away with was way more than I expected real connections, real conversations, and a brotherhood that felt genuine from day one.

The structure of the retreat was perfect. You’re getting pushed physically with the workouts, but it’s balanced with experiences, downtime, and moments to actually take everything in. It never felt forced it felt intentional. Every day had purpose.

What stood out to me the most was how inclusive and welcoming the environment was. As an LGBTQ+ retreat, it created a space where you could just be yourself no pressure, no judgment, just good energy all around. Different backgrounds, different stories, but everybody showed up as they were, and that made the whole experience even more powerful.

The team running this? Solid. Organized, engaging, and they actually care about the people there. You can tell this isn’t just something they host it’s something they believe in.

If you’re on the fence about booking do it. Bet on yourself. This isn’t just a trip, it’s an experience you carry with you long after you leave.

I’ll definitely be back.

10/10 Definitely Recommend!!!

Thanks Visiting World

Absolutely best vacation I ever had. Fitness, learning, villa, exploring the country, taking all the fun trips, all kinds of beaches and places…

Just overall I would do this again 100%. This is coming from someone who simply trusted his gut and went, so if someone is undecided to go… Trust me, it’s well more than worth it.

The best vacation ever! 🚀😎
Gym, experiences, good people, really good food, nice trips, georgeus accommodiation.
You can get a lot of information about your body, workouts, nutrition and the others.

I had no idea what to expect going into Visiting Wrld, but what I walked into was magic. The energy, the people, the vibe, it was the kind of experience that reminds you how good life can be when you're surrounded by community and intention. Every day felt like a reset, and every night felt like a celebration. Jasper and Joe created something that was both grounded and expansive, and I left feeling way more connected to myself and to others. It wasn’t just a trip, it was a moment in my life I’ll never forget.

I’m already planning to go back. If you’re on the fence, just do it, seriously. You only get one life, and this is one of those things that makes it feel full.

What ultimately made my experience so memorable was the fact that the leaders of VisitingWRLD had put so much work into organizing a community and space where everybody who attended could feel like their values and reasons for being there or prioritized, just as much as us as individuals.

The goal of this company is to create priceless and intentional learning experiences specifically for us as members of the LGBTQ community, who don’t have the same outlets in our current living situations to be able to find tools to better our own lives, meeting others who share a similar devotion to development, while also navigating a paradise that can’t be found necessarily within the state in which we live.

Sure, we could have all individually paid some random travel agency for a trip such as this one, but what passionately separated this experience from the others was the fact that the people who organized this trip desired for all of us to not only have incredible fun but for us to feel safe, and in unity as we experience that fun, to share our lives with each other, and to learn from one another, while also creating a space where we can have foundations for relationships that surpass the time we spend in paradise.

Regardless of the fact that this was the first time that VisitingWRLD had created an experience for all of us, it certainly will not be the last time that I personally attend one of these experiences, and I hope that moving forward, I am able to share the joy and immense levels of paradise that I felt throughout that week with my own friends to bring them along! Once again to Jasper, Joe, and all the coaches, thank you for changing my life and making my first international trip the best one I could’ve possibly had!! I hope many others take the same leap of faith I did with this trip because I have not one regret from doing it!!!

I learned so much about life all while seeing it. This experience helped me get out of my comfort zone as I became surrounded by amazing, inspiring people. They all helped me become a better version of myself.

I loved everything about it. You can tell the coaches put their all into this. I would 100% do this again!

Honestly, you guys did amazing. I'd 100% re-do the experience. I mean it when I say it's been the best trip of my life. A list of things I felt the company did well was
The timing was phenomenal. I didn't remember a single time the group was later than 15 minutes for anything, which is a big deal considering you guys had to organize 30 of us.
I got my money's worth for the amount of excursions we had & the luxurious amenities/activities we experienced.
You guys encouraged a drama-free environment. I had zero drama this trip and saw minimal drama occur as well.
Roommate assignments worked out perfectly. I didn't hear any roommate complaints from anyone. (I spent a night at every house, so I feel like I'd know if there were many significant issues, lol)
A perfect balance of locking in at the gym. The lessons were engaging. I was genuinely never bored during workshops & the fun activities were VERY FUN.
I FELT VERY SAFE THE WHOLE TIME, even when we went bar hopping lol.
Food was immaculate
Photography was amazing (shoutout Joey & Will)
We had an amazing group of retreaters. I got along with EVERY single one of them. Whatever you guys did to read everyone's vibes, keep doing it you guys nailed it.
The retreat location was one of the most beautiful, affordable places you guys could have chosen.
Areas of improvement,
Coach Joe, Jasper & James did an amazing job, although I felt that Coach Justin & Michael could've been more interactive during our workouts. It was tricky for you guys to assist all of us at once despite us seeing you guys try your best. A few more coaches on board would definitely be helpful.
The houses were far from one another, which was tricky at times to navigate, especially on coaches.
For future directions at Cancun airport, I'd recommend you guys tell everyone to meet you in front of the Starbucks at terminal three because, when I met with everyone, they all thought they would be picked up at the private shuttles near Margaritaville. Meanwhile, the pickup location was the family/taxi pickup outside Starbucks. Not your guy's faults, it's a really confusing airport.

Lastly, I wanted to say thank you for everything I as well as other retreaters discussed how we can tell you guys dedicated a lot of hard work to the planning & actual execution of the trip I’m manifesting Visiting World to become super successful and i do hope to go on another trip with you guys.

Some places don’t demand your attention—they simply receive it.

Here, time softens, giving way for a community not just built, but truly felt.

Leaving refreshed with a quite knowing — feeling lighter, stronger, seen.

I reached out to the coaches about this retreat back in September and when i was given all the information i needed over a ft call, it all honestly felt too good to be true. I was very uneasy about this because of the fact that it would be my first time out the country, i was planning on traveling alone, i didn’t have a passport so if i did this id have to be fully committed and there would be no turning back from that point moving forward!

I questioned Jasper on numerous things to make sure i wasn’t being scammed lmao but he assured me that it wasn’t so i said screw it why not. The coaches were flexible with payment options and couldn’t have been more understanding when it came to all of our financial situations.

Fast forward to January (this month) i was flown out to Mexico and right off the bat met the coaches the same day and even got to spend some time getting to know them all on a personal level. We then moved into our houses the next day and that’s when i eventually met the full team! There were people from all over the country that tagged along on this retreat; male/female, lgbtq/straight, experienced/inexperienced lifters, people that have/haven't worked out before, bartenders/nurses/chefs, etc. i honestly felt a little intimidated at first because of the fact that none of us knew each other up until the moment that everyone landed in the country, but little did i know; i was gonna come out of this experience with really strong relationships.

The coaches spent hours, days, and months trying to set everything up down to the nitty gritty and you could easily tell that this trip meant a lot more to them than any of us would’ve thought! We got to experience a personal chef cooking us meals each day, we had a wide range of around 25 people that we all got to know, we were taught tons of valuable information about our body’s (cutting, bulking, dieting, etc.) and even got one on one training with a coach of our choice when we all were at the gym!

All of that was great but the excursions that we did every day really made this experience like none other. From going on a private yacht, to jumping off cenotes, and even swimming with TURTLES & STINGRAYS all of these experiences left deep core memories that i’ll likely carry with me moving forward in my life. The price that we paid for a week trip outside of the U.S. was definitely worth it! Trying to book a trip and do the stuff we did on your own will easily cost you double what we had to pay to be apart of this, which was another reason why i HAD to come onto this retreat.

Throughout the week of being there, I learned something new about my body each day, I made lifetime friends, I met TONS of fine men lbvs🫦, I got to explore the natural beauty Mexico has to offer, and let’s not forget the all inclusive TEQUILA and LIQUOR that we were given!

If you’re hesitant about traveling alone and wanting to go on a future retreat with Visiting Wrld, DO IT! I promise it’s something that you won’t regret committing to, and TRUST if you do decide to attend one in the future; you’ll definitely see me there! :)

This trip was a spectacular experience. I wish I could do it all over again. If you’re looking to do something great for yourself. You’d go on one of these trips. Jasper and Joe are dope!! They created a vision and went for it. Now that’s what inspires me. That’s what I like to see and put around me!

I loved my experienced with visitingwrld! I really enjoyed that I got to make friends with incredibly friendly and interesting people while not stressing of what the day would look like. The team took care of all that and I was just there for the ride. I went in not knowing what to expect and found myself pleasantly surprised with the activities and dynamics of the group. It does take one self to be proactive to meet people, and once you do, you'll have an awesome time!

I was very skeptical at first, believe me. It was almost too good to be true… beautiful homes, workouts, private chef, and a full blown vacation on top of that? The issue was that these guys came from out of no where promising the world… listen when I say this, they DELIVERED !!!

This experience was well past my expectations. Everyday we were jam packed with things to do, but of course some free time as well to just enjoy our vacation.

We had seminars on multiple topics everyday ranging from overall fitness to the nitty gritty nutrition stuff. There were daily workouts with multiple coaches instructing us, private chef catering with nutritious foods 3 times a day, excursions, parties, you name it.

I’ve learned so much about myself and my fitness journey through this trip, and no doubt made lifelong friends along the way.

Overall like I said, ABOVE EXPECTATIONS!

This is one of those times when you just need to take a leap of faith, and live life with no regrets. If you’re reading this review, take that leap and make a memory that you’ll be telling for years to come. Cheers 🙏🏽

This trip taught me so much about health science and essentials for having a health body! I was so blown away by the coaches and staff, they are all so friendly and were able to help me every step of the way! Being surrounded by people who supported me allowed me to be more myself and have a blast! The excursions where so fun and well planned I couldn't have asked for anything better! It was luxury, it was fitness, it was educational, and worth every penny.

Visiting Wrld was such an incredible experience and I was honored to be apart of it! From the moment I arrived, I felt completely safe, welcomed, and cared for by the team. The group had such a positive and inviting vibe, which made it easy to relax and focus on enjoying myself. The coaches were amazing—very knowledgeable, supportive, and really attentive to everyone’s individual needs and they went above and beyond to make everyone comfortable.

What made it even more special were the connections I built with the other retreaters during the lectures and activities.

Overall, it was such a positive, uplifting experience, both physically and emotionally. I’d recommend this retreat to anyone looking to recharge, grow, and network with likeminded people!
