Visiting other Synagogues

I started attending a reform synagogue a few months ago, where I’ve been consistently going to Friday Services and Torah Study. I’m actively trying to learn and seeing if I have a place in a Jewish community. The synagogue and Rabbi’s have been amazing, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn. I would like to see how other synagogues (conserving, orthodox, reconstruction, renewal) operate, so I was planning on trying to visit other synagogues.

I am going to call a conservative synagogue next week to see if I could attend on Friday. I’m not sure if this would be considered rude or disrespectful, or if I should say anything to the Synagogue that I am attending. I don’t think they would care at all, but I also don’t want to assume. I would just like to attend the other synagogue once to just observe the differences in tradition, and observance.

I’m looking to see if anyone had thoughts or advice. My insight in these matters is limited, and I don’t want to be disrespectful.
