Bous is that the Greek word for a cow, whereas porus is that the Greek word for an area of crossing – the Crossing Place of the Cow.

The Crossing Place Of The Cow

The Istanbul Strait, as it is often mentioned, is the narrowest navigated strait in the planet. At its narrowest point the straight is only seven hundred meters wide, and in some parts, vessels using the straight have to make abrupt directional changes of up to eighth degrees to navigate around the straight’s bends and corners. That, in turn, makes it a notoriously dangerous shipping lane since ships oncoming from the opposite direction can!t be seen.

The Bosporus is 30 km long, with a maximum width of 3.7 km at the northern entrance and a min. The width of 750 meters between the Ottoman fortifications of Anadoluhisarı and Rumelihisarı.

Bosphorus, also spelled Bosporus, Turkish İstanbul Boğazı, strait (boğaz, “throat”) uniting the Sea of Marmara and the Black Sea separating parts of Asian Turkey (Anatolia) from European Turkey.

decoration ideas for private yacht tours on Bosphorus

Our experience was amazing. We wanted to take elopement style wedding photos on the cruise. The host and crew were more than accommodating. They helped us organize a photographer and a violinist. They set up a table for us with candles, drinks and snacks which was very nice of them. Offered us blankets as the weather became cold and windy. They played our favourite music and were very nice throughout the whole experience.
