Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Eze and Chilu race to exit Ecuador before their legal stay expires, driving their self-built motorhome south through the eastern Oriente region toward the Peru border with two days of visa margin remaining.6:55 The route from Macas through Zamora, Loja, Vilcabamba, and Valladolid mixes mostly passable asphalt with deteriorating gravel sections in the final 50 km before the crossing — a corniche road with landslides, potholes, deformed pavement, and no room to pass buses or trucks.11:29 The full 200 km takes roughly 12 hours including stops.13:52 They clear both Ecuadorian and Peruvian immigration and customs the same evening, discovering at the border they had one more legal day than expected.12:41 They camp overnight beside a river just inside Peru.14:58 The crossing itself is described as slow but not dangerous; customs and immigration on both sides move quickly.14:04 They enter Peru intending to travel south through the sierra toward Cajamarca, stopping near Jaén and trekking to what is ranked the third or fourth highest waterfall in the world.18:01 The eastern Ecuador border route is slow and rough enough that most tourists avoid it — the road condition, not any legal or safety risk, is the main obstacle.14:12
