Hello Jamyrene, welcome to UsingEnglish!

I don't know of a book you can buy; but here are some English tourist sites:

English Tourist Board

Visit Britain

Tourism in England

And this Wiki page has some more links:

Wikipedia on English Tourism

Good luck!

Let us know if any words or phrases are puzzling.

Hello Jamyrene

I don't know whether this address will help:

Quote:

Founded in 1951 to develop the cultural and human aspects of international
tourism. It has a special interest in the linguistics of tourism. Publishes the

I found it here.
