Some lodges more than others. We have a few lodges that we have arranged regular visits, a couple of which are in other countries. But in the end its up to each member to decide weather they wish to visit other lodges or not.

As RoughAshlar stated, it is up to the individual to decide which and how often they attend or visit another lodge. Once you are a master mason, it is your perogative to visit any lodge you wish to visit. You may attend any blue lodge in the entire world. That is one of the wonderful things about freemasonry, regardless of where you were raised, you may visit any lodge in the world and meet on the level with any other mason.

I would like to add to this. Before visiting any lodge you may wish to check with your grand lodge. It would be nice to be able to visit any lodge, however there are lodges which your grand lodge will hold as irregular or clandistine lodges which are not in regularity with the UGLE.
