description The current role of English as global lingua franca has heightened the need for a reconceptualization of how the language is taught and learnt. Most interactions in English today occur in lingua franca settings with multilingual speakers from a wide variety of contexts. Nonetheless, most ELT textbooks solely focus on a native-speaker model both in terms of language and culture. A great number of studies have focused on the extent to which the linguistic and cultural perspectives brought about by ELF and World Englishes research have permeated into textbooks; however, rather less attention has been paid on how they have been incorporated in English for Specific Purposes (henceforth, ESP) textbooks. To this end, this study explores the extent to which an ELF- aware perspective is present in seven English for tourism textbooks. On the whole, the results show a prevalence of Inner-circle linguistic and cultural content.
