overnight stops in egypt and istanbul
 
We are looking for a cruise that stops in egypt and istambul, and would like to stay overnight in those ports. I noticed that Norwegian had one but we don't like the freestyle dining. Does anyone know of another?

There are a few cruise lines that do eastern Mediterranean cruises. I'm not sure if any stop in both Alexandria and Istanbul on the same cruise. In all likelihood, such a cruise might start in Athens and go to Istanbul. Look at Regent Seven Seas or one of the other upcale cruise lines.

P & O do an Eastern Med cruise but they don't overnight in any of the ports. Might still be worth a look.

Celebrity Cruises does Egypt & Istanbul stopovers in their Ancient Empires Cruise. It's a great cruiseline.

I'm almost certain that Regent does overnights there (at least in previous years).

Princess has a cruise in November with overnight in Egypt and a stop in Instanbul (not an overnight).

Thanks for the posts. I will definitely check Regent, Celebrity and Princess out.
