Journal of Tour Guiding (JOTOG) aims to remove the need for funding / sponsoring to cover printing costs to a large extent, and thus facilitate access and sharing of information by publishing open source. In addition, being aware of the cost of information, we want to publish with an understanding that is not commercialized and does not allow the monopolization of information. Considering the difference between publishing and academics and the difficulties in publishing, we want to work exclusively for science on a voluntary basis, as in many stages of academia. For this reason, JOTOG is designed to be accessible to everyone easily and free of charge online.

JOTOG is fully accessible publication; This means that the peer-reviewed scientific studies can be read, downloaded, copied, printed, scanned or freely accessed online, scanned for indexing, transferred to software or financial, legal or technical means to be used for other legal purposes without obstacles.
