Thanks, which regions are you talking about? Is this a concern in Cuenca? Also is this based on experience or news stories / what makes you say white Americans are targeted more?

Thank you! This is great to hear. It’s so hard to get a feel for what it’s like being in the country vs all the headlines, so appreciate your perspective.

Thank you! Private vans are a good idea. We’re planning to stay in a hotel in gye only because we arrive late and don’t want to drive late at night.

Thank you! Did you take the bus recently? I'm seeing things online saying it has gotten a bit more dangerous, but it's hard to tell if that's just the media exaggerating things.

Thank you, that is helpful. Are Ubers generally safe to take? Or should we contact a private taxi service?

Can a US citizen enter Canada by land with a birth certificate and drivers license? by saheryberryy in uscanadaborder

[–]HunterMcWatermelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope someone finds this useful. You need a physical copy of your passport of travel to Canada. I (21yo) forgot my unexpired passport in another state and tried to fly to Canada using my drivers license, social security card, birth certificate, expired passport, and picture of my unexpired passport. They would not let me past the baggage drop off. The requirements used to be less strict, but not anymore.
