This is my first time joining Traveling…

This is my first time joining Traveling Athletes, and it has been an incredible experience so far. From my very first interaction with Julian, to the energizing workouts with Justin in Bali, I've felt nothing but welcomed, supported, and motivated every step of the way. If you're someone who loves to travel, stay active, and push your boundaries, this is the perfect adventure for you! Whether you're a seasoned traveler or someone ready to step outside your comfort zone, this trip has something amazing to offer.

Amazing Trip to Greece

We booked a trip to Greece through Travelling athletes and loved it. The CrossFit coach and the yoga teacher were just amazing. As was the hotel and the people.
The communication with Travelling athletes was uncomplicated and quick.

There was no group, not good if you want to meet people

Travelling Athletes really ruined my holiday last year. They booked me into an amazing place in Greece but there was nobody, no group, nobody to train with only yoga instructor and cross fitness instructor who weren't always available. I had to pay for a more expensive room because the hotel was fully booked for a wedding, what nightmare i was the inly guest not part of the wedding. After 5 days alone a new girl joined me and asked: "Where are the other people part of the group?"...well there's nobody.
Amazing location but it would have been good to know that this wasn't a retreat with a group but only a hotel which has part time yoga and cross-fitness instructor. What a pity, really misleading communication.

Hi Maria,
thank you for your feedback. And, of course, we like to apologize that not everything was as expected.
Anyway, I like to comment on some incorrect information in your comment.
The other girls being there at the same time had given us amazing reviews and feedback.
I guess, it is up to expectations, and you might have expected a fitness retreat (which our holidays are not, as multiple times pointed out to you beforehand).
Our holidays are not a retreat with a set date, fixed daily schedule and large groups.

I apologize that your trip was not as expected. However, we had talked for quite a long time before your trip, answering all your questions, and we have explained the type of holiday as well as the situation to you.
Due to a large wedding in the hotel, there was no availability in the hotel for any additional guests. This is why you were already given a free room upgrade.

Note:
As you had contacted me during your stay and told me that you really loved the activities and especially the bike tour, you had asked us for another free bike tour. Sadly, we couldn't accommodate your wish as you were already given some additional activities free of charge.

As it is our primary goal that our guests have an amazing trip, we have been in contact quite a lot with you and tried to accommodate all your wishes (free yoga etc.)... responding to your requests around the clock.
We hope your next trip well be all you hoped for :)
Best of luck.

it was my first time using travelling athletes and it really was wonderful. the accomodation was good , response time, training , options were all great.

i look forward to more trips with travelling athletes.

from my side i booked too many food options - so wasted some food - that’s the only thing i’d do differently

Travelling Athletes connected me to the most amazing place!!

Travelling Athletes connected me to Melitsina Village Hotel in the south of Greece. This is somewhere I knew nothing about, and knew no one. Because of the service Travelling Athletes provided, I now have had THE MOST BEAUTIFUL experience and will be returning to Kardamili. The program provided for me was absolutely perfect. The Cross Fit sessions provided by Dimitri were awesome, I had never done Cross fit before, and Dimitri was a patient, careful, encouraging and motivating coach. I got great workouts while feeling safe. Olivia took our yoga classes, and they were just perfect. Her classes were a perfect blend of strengthening, stretching and mindfulness. The cross fit and yoga worked really well together, and my body felt so strong and full of energy. Andreas took us on two great hikes!!! They were quite full on hikes!!, so it was perfect!! A great workout also!, my body was so happy to be moving so much, and seeing so much beauty at the same time. We also went on a bike ride and kayaking…. All of it was mind blowing.

I met so many people, my travelling Athlete group was not a huge group (4 people joined all together officially), but it didn’t matter at all because the entire environment is set up to meet like minded people and feel good in the space! I ended up hanging with both travelling athletes and other people from the area.

This was a great service! I recommended this! And I recommend the Greece program…. It’s the only one I have done with travelling Athletes, but it was OUT OF THIS WORLD!

Thank you travelling Athletes for your service and the connections you helped me make.

Perfect first step... 🥰🙏🏋️‍♀️

Everything was super-well organised.
Met lots of nice people in Tenerife and cannot wait to be back. And even though I was new to CrossFit, I was able to join all of the classes 🏋️‍♀️ thanks again to Julian and the other coaches who helped me do the first step 🥰🙏

NOT an organized fitness holiday where you’ll meet people

Nothing was wrong BUT - keep in mind this is not a fitness holiday, you will not meet any people or build a community (at least not with the help of traveling athletes). This is a package where you get access to CrossFit, hotel booked nearby and some discounts at nearby shops and restaurants. That’s all. And on top of that it’s much cheaper if you just book all of it yourself. So, I just want to make clear that this is what it is because I was traveling alone, expecting to meet people but it didn’t happen as there was no meet and greet or any activity arranged socially, we all stayed at hotels with other random tourists and attended classes like anyone else could. Classes were good and hotels were good but I’m trying to make a point that it’s not what I expected. We also joined a whatsapp group but besides please welcome so and so to the group there were no messages and no one was in charge of organizing any events. So do yourself a favor and just sign up to CrossFit at S2S if you want, however I’ve seen also much better gyms at other parts of the island too - it’s very small and almost completely outdoors, however I still liked it!

Hi Tanya,
I hope you are doing well.
I am glad to hear that you liked your holiday with us :)
However, I'm sorry, that not everything was as you expected. I think we delivered everything we promise (and even more).
It is a come-and-go style fitness holidays with athletes being there all year round (which also means, that this isn't a type of holiday in which a big group of 20 people are all coming to Bali for a fixed one-week retreat.)
However, we also offer community events (weekly dinners, which usually take place on a Thursday night).

Also, you mention in your comment that it is cheaper elsewhere. However, this is not correct. We work closely with S2S CrossFit, and our price is always a bit cheaper compared to booking directly with them 😉 You also get many more benefits, such as free cancellation, 24h travel host, travel insurance and more.
Anyway, I am happy to hear that you still had a great time and that you really enjoyed the workouts.
If you ever need anything, feel free to contact us at any time :)
Sporty regards

Great sports holiday

Julian was well organised and made the trip very enjoyable. The hotel was close to the well equipped CrossFit box and it offered daily classes, open gym and PT sessions. Would definitely go again.

Third trip in the planning ☺️

We had a lovely time!
This was our second trip with this company (first one to Greece) and now to Tenerife.
Both trips were so well organised, and each time we were positively surprised!
Julian, Sabrina & the team always responded super quickly to any questions we had (even very late at night).
The third trip is in the planning :)

1st time using traveling athletes and couldn't recommend a better company. Any issues/concerns they answered within 24 hours and couldn't do enough to help and make the experience the best. Would definitely recommend and use again for future fitness holidays.

First time in bali

This was my first time in Bali so the package was perfect for me. Even though i am a beginner at crossfit, the classes and workout sessions could be adjusted so that i could participate.

I always felt very welcome, and the crossfit-family in bali were great.

Would recommend this package to anyone that wants to get fit or just workout while on holiday.

Brilliant from start to finish

Just finished my first holiday with travelling athletes and I was so impressed with everything from start to finish. Welcome pack in the post a few months before was a lovely touch, and got my excited for my trip.

The CrossFit experience in Tenerife was excellent with great trainers and a supportive atmosphere. I also did the stargazing trip and sunset yoga, which were both incredible as well.

Will be recommending Travelling Athletes to everyone I know!

I have just spend a week in Tererife with Travelling Athletes, Julian has built a real sense of community among all the Athletes. I trained at Crossfit 27, which is a fantastic fully equipped box with great coaching and good programming. This is the first time I've travelled on my own, everything was well organised and i felt part of the community. Thank you Julian.
