Two cruise ships are due to dock in the Isle of Man this week. The MS Prinsendam, carrying 700 passengers and 400 crew, was due to anchor at Douglas Bay on Tuesday.
The MS Seabourne Pride will sail into the port on Saturday during a 21-day cruise which started in London and finishes in New York.
David Cretney, Isle of Man tourism minister, said the stops were "a reflection of the island's desirability as a cruise destination".
Both ship captains will be presented with plaques to mark their inaugural visits to the island and tourism staff will hand out information to passengers.
