"Is there any difference between these or is it just dressing up?"
ANSWER: You are correct. The accompanying phrases are basically "dressing up" the first statement. "Traveling the whole world" implies having visited every country, which in practical terms is impossible, while "Traveling the whole wide world" suggests the person is simply very well traveled internationally.
"Traveling the world" is quite a claim in itself, but it is more modest and realistic than the other two statements.
