Best way to travel from Peru to Ecuador - Bird's Eye View Of Roadway Surrounded By Trees

I was trying to find a way to travel from Peru to Ecuador around the beginning of March 2019.

I will be in Lima and trying to get to Ecuador, doesn't matter exactly where so it could be Guayaquil, Cuenca, Quito, or other.

The flights from Lima to Ecuador are very expensive for my budget, around US$200 or more. Going by car/bus from Lima to Ecuador is a very long journey that I would rather avoid.

I was thinking to book a flight from Lima to northern Peru (Talara or Piura, around US$50) and take a bus from there to Ecuador.

Is it a good way to pass the border on land between these two countries? I don't know how the road is there, if the waiting time at the border is long, if it is dangerous, etc.
