Frequently asked questions
I run scenic tours with a rubber-tyred tourist train on fixed schedules and set stops — what ATECO code applies?
Yes, scheduled road transport for sightseeing — with tourist trains or tourist buses operating on fixed timetables and set stops — is 49.31.01. The defining factor is the fixed timetable. If the tours are on-demand, without a fixed schedule, using a coach, the entry becomes 49.32.01.
A city tourist train with a fixed route and set stops — does it fall here or under regular scheduled bus services?
Yes, a road tourist train operating on set timetables with fixed boarding and alighting stops is specifically listed within 49.31.01. When a scheduled bus serves everyday commuter journeys rather than a sightseeing tour, you move to the general scheduled service 49.31.02.
My sightseeing tour runs on a scenic tram, not on the road — should I use this code?
No, if the vehicle runs on rail it is not a road service. Rail passenger transport for sightseeing on light tramways falls under 49.12.00. 49.31.01 applies only to scheduled sightseeing services by road.
