性旅遊
買春團或者性旅游是一些人以嫖娼为目的的旅游行为。参与旅游买春的可以是男性也可以是女性，可以是群体行为也可以是个别行为。在学术上买春团也称为性旅游。買春團的目標不一，某些買春團甚至專門找未成年人为对象，和未成年人進行性交易，在大多數國家嫖雛妓都是严重的違法行為。
联合国专门机构世界旅游组织将性旅游定义为"trips organized from within the tourism sector, or from outside this sector but using its structures and networks, with the primary purpose of effecting a commercial sexual relationship by the tourist with residents at the destination".[1] 联合国反对性旅游因其会对性游客所在国和目的国导致健康、社会和文化一系列不良后果，特别会导致在性旅游目的国性别年龄、社会和经济状况的不均衡。[1][2][3]
While sex tourism can refer to a variety of commercial sexual activities, agencies and 一些学者[谁？] 有时也使用诸如成人性旅游，儿童性旅游，妇女性旅游来区分不同的性旅游行为。[來源請求] Attractions for sex tourists can include reduced costs for services in the destination country, along with either legal prostitution or indifferent law enforcement and access to child prostitution.
目的地
一些国家已经成为买春团比较集中的目的国。这包括[[泰国],[4] 巴西,[5][6] 斯里兰卡,[7][8][9] 多米尼加共和国,[10][11] 哥斯达黎加,[12][13] 古巴,[14][15] 和肯尼亚,[16]
一些个别城市或者区域可能在买春团有特别受到关注。很多这些区域idoushi位于主要的红灯区，其中包括荷兰的阿姆斯特丹；墨西哥蒂华纳的北城区；墨西哥Nuevo Laredo市的男孩城；巴西的福塔雷萨和里約熱內盧；泰国的曼谷芭達亞和普吉府；俄罗斯远东地区的海參崴；乌克兰的 赫尔松，敖德薩，克里米亚；东亚买春团的主要目的地 [17]和en:Angeles City[18]——位于菲律宾的邦板牙省的前美国军事基地。
在美国, 卖淫在多数范围是违法的，但是在内华达和罗德岛的一些区域却有猖獗的性交易，这些区域因此也成为一些美国买春团的目的地。
相反，世界上越来越多的国家和地区将卖淫活动合法化，也包括上述（不是全部）某些地区。
妇女性旅游
