Ecuador - Perú (Cuenca - Máncora) border crossing.


Sunset in Máncora
There are many blogs written by people who travelled through the border of Ecuador and Perú and experienced many problems, like: delays, closed office at the border for three hours in the night between 2:00 and 5:00 a.m. and change of buses along with their luggages at the border etc...
We arrived today in Máncora: on time (on the dot!), we carried on the same bus the whole journey, officers werevery nice, the immigration office open at 2:30 a.m... I assure others who want to do this track: There is nothing to worry about! Ignore other posts.

The bus costs US $14 from Cuenca to Máncora, directly. We crossed the frontier at the Huaquillas, where according to other bloggers was the worst border crossing ever in their life (backpackforever.com).
We bought the tickets one day earlier on the Cuenca bus terminal and we went with Super Semería bus company.
