eSIM for Africa

Stay connected across Africa's most visited destinations

Traveling to Africa? Get Connected Before You Go.

Africa is a continent of extremes — from South Africa's modern cities with 4G/5G to remote safari locations with limited coverage. An eSIM is the most practical way to get data: avoid the long registration processes at local telecom shops and get connected the moment you arrive.

Country Coverage Best For
South Africa Very Good Cape Town, Johannesburg, safari
Kenya Good (urban) Nairobi, Mombasa, Masai Mara
Tanzania Moderate Zanzibar, Serengeti, Kilimanjaro
Nigeria Good (Lagos) Business, Lagos

Tips for African Travel

  • Download offline maps — coverage can drop significantly outside major cities
  • WhatsApp is the dominant messaging platform across the continent
  • Power banks are essential — frequent charging opportunities may be limited on safari
  • Budget 3-5GB for a typical week of tourist use in urban areas
