Series Name:
VV - Trips and holidays
From 1997 Istat conducts the quarterly survey “Trips and Holidays” in order to quantify and analyse the Italian flow of tourism, both within the country and abroad, and provide information about trips and sociodemographic factors of tourist. The survey collects information about all trips finished in that quarter, regardless of starting date. Compared to past Italian surveys on holidays, “Trips and holidays” survey also collect, for the first time, information on short holidays (1-3 nights) and job tourism.
therefore, the survey represents the first experience of quarterly data on trips with at least one overnight for work or holiday. This feature allows to provide, in addiction to the customers data from tourism infrastructure, information on the number and characteristics of trips and tourists. Therefore, the survey provides useful information in order to understand the complexity of tourism.
In order to optimize the time of use of the dataset (exclusively distributed from ISTAT for not member users), UniData offers a service of convertion from ASCII format to the main statistical software format (SPSS, Stata, R or SAS). For detailed information visit the Services for Istat Data page.
