No personal experience but my mother would bus from her home near Grand Forks to Winnipeg (~2.5 hour trip each way) for Rx. The bus was chartered by our then-Senator Mark Dayton for that specific purpose. At the time no passport was needed. The eventual passage of Medicare Part D made that unnecessary for her. The organizers of the trip would provide information to her on what she needed to bring and do. She has since died so I can't ask her about it.
