性旅遊
買春團是發達國家的人士到某國家集體嫖妓的旅行團，通常都是到淫業興盛與貧窮的發展中國家。買春團的目標不一，某些買春團甚至專門找雛妓進行性交易，在大多數國家嫖雛妓都是違法的行為。
目的地
一些國家已經成為買春團比較集中的目的國。這包括[[泰國],[1] 巴西,[2][3] 斯里蘭卡,[4][5][6] 多米尼加共和國,[7][8] 哥斯達黎加,[9][10] 古巴,[11][12] 和肯雅,[13]
一些個別城市或者區域可能在買春團有特別受到關注。很多這些區域idoushi位於主要的紅燈區，其中包括荷蘭的阿姆斯特丹；墨西哥蒂華納的北城區；墨西哥Nuevo Laredo市的男孩城；巴西的福塔雷薩和里約熱內盧；泰國的曼谷芭達亞和普吉府；俄羅斯遠東地區的海參崴；烏克蘭的 赫爾松，敖德薩，克里米亞；東亞買春團的主要目的地 [14]和en:Angeles City[15]——位於菲律賓的邦板牙省的前美國軍事基地。
在美國, 賣淫在多數範圍是違法的，但是在內華達和羅德島的一些區域卻有猖獗的性交易，這些區域因此也成為一些美國買春團的目的地。
相反，世界上越來越多的國家和地區將賣淫活動合法化，也包括上述（不是全部）某些地區。
女性買春團
女性買春團的主要目的地是南歐 (主要是意大利, 希臘, 克羅地亞 , 土耳其, 斯洛文尼亞, 烏克蘭和西班牙),加勒比地區 (牙買加, 巴巴多斯和多米尼加共和國),非洲 (突尼斯, 贊比亞, 肯雅 [16]), 巴里,[17] 泰國的芭達亞或普吉府。其他目的地還包括尼泊爾, 摩洛哥, 斐濟, 厄瓜多爾和薩爾瓦多.[18]
一項估計顯示，自1980年至今有65萬西方婦女參與過買春活動，其中很多還是回頭客。[19] 根據另一項估計有8萬北美和歐洲婦女為買春每年到牙買加旅遊。[20]
