The Saga Sapphire cruise ship has been spotted docked in the Port of Dover.
It is understood the boat arrived at the Dover Cruise Terminal last night with passengers disembarking this morning.
It comes after the over-50s travel giant, headquartered in Folkestone, confirmed it was suspending all cruises as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
And that meant an early end to those on the firm's Discovery and Sapphire ships.
A number of vehicles from the holiday firm's fleet were also spotted parked nearby to where the vessel had been berthed at the Western Docks.
They are used to move and transport passengers.
A crane also removed a number of items from the liner's stores.
A Saga spokesman said: "As a result of the change to Government advice earlier this week we have taken the decision to temporarily suspend our cruises until 1st May 2020."
