Relocating Tour Business To Mallorca?

Hello all

I?m new to the forum so here is a little about myself

My name is Chris, and I currently live with my partner Ceri, where we live and work in the UK near Blackpool in the NW of England. During the day I run a tour operating business and at the evenings I work as an entertainer (close up magician). I have joined this forum because I am hoping to relocate to Spain. Because many of you have already ?made the move? I was hoping you could share your experiences and offer me your pearls of wisdom and much needed advise.

Here is my current situation (I know I?ve jumped in at the deep end with my request so sorry about that). I am wanting to relocate my existing business from the UK to Mallorca next year. Presently I operate scenic tours around the Lake District using a three seater ?Boom? trike (three seater motorbike bike) similar to the vehicle Billy Connelly took on his World tour around Australia & New Zealand, (click here to get a better understanding of my current business www.freedomtriketours.com)

By bringing my business to Mallorca, I would be helping to open up the Island to visitors by encouraging them to visit less tourist focussed places away from their resorts.

The vehicle is fully compliant with EC road safety and law requirements. Here in the UK I currently take pre-booked tours using a ?private hire license? issued by the local council (a taxi license).

My question is?

1. How do I go about re-locating and setting my business up in Mallorca?
2. What vehicle licenses are required and where do I obtain them?
3. What tour operating licenses or permits are required and where do I obtain them?
4. How do I go about using the vehicle for airport shuttle runs? Who do I contact? What permits or licenses are required and where do I obtain them?


I hear taxi licenses are almost impossible to obtain and to be honest is not quite what I am after (although I would consider one if offered).

I guess I am looking for a licence similar to what a coach or bus touring business would have. I know my request is unusual but if there is anybody here who could help and point me in the right direction that would be fantastic.

Any advice if greatly appreciated

Cheers
