Everything you need for stress-free travel

Stay connected across Nepal

Coverage is solid in Kathmandu and Pokhara, connecting through a local Nepali network. On the treks it follows altitude, dependable through the lower villages and weakening or dropping out higher up and on the passes, so keep offline maps and expect teahouse wifi to be slow.

Using an eSIM in Nepal

A Nepal eSIM gets you online as you land in Kathmandu, ready for maps, ride apps and messaging, and it keeps you connected on the popular treks, though how much signal you have depends heavily on altitude. Install it before you fly and skip the airport SIM queue.

Cities strong, trekking by altitude

Kathmandu and Pokhara have solid, fast coverage. On the classic treks the signal follows the altitude: dependable through the lower villages, such as up to Namche Bazaar on the Everest route or Manang on the Annapurna Circuit, then weakening and dropping out as you climb higher and cross the passes. Many teahouses offer paid wifi higher up, though it is slow, so download offline maps and plan for stretches with little or no data.

Skip the Kathmandu SIM queue

Buying a local SIM in Nepal means passport copies, a photo and a registration form. A travel eSIM is set up online before you go, so you land already connected with nothing to register.

How much data

A trekking trip leans mostly on maps, messaging and the odd photo, often around 5-10GB, with more if you upload a lot or rely on data over teahouse wifi. These are starting points, and actual use varies.

Travel eSIM FAQs

Coverage is dependable up to around Namche Bazaar, then weakens as you climb higher, with little or no reliable signal near the top. Teahouses offer paid wifi higher up but it is slow, so download offline maps and plan for offline stretches.
It is good through the lower villages like Manang, then becomes unreliable towards and over the Thorong La pass. Download offline maps for the high sections and expect gaps.
No. A local SIM needs passport copies, a photo and a form, but a travel eSIM is set up online before you go, so you land already connected with nothing to register.
Yes, both have solid, fast coverage, so maps, ride apps, translation and messaging all work from the moment you land.
It exists higher up but is slow and shared among many trekkers. Most people use mobile data lower down and wifi higher up, so it helps to have both and to download offline maps before you set off.
Trekking leans mostly on maps and messaging, often around 5-10GB, with more if you upload a lot of photos or rely on data over wifi. These are starting points, and actual use varies.

Top-up availability depends on the plan. Some eSIMs can be topped up, including certain unlimited plans, while others may require a new plan once the current one ends or runs out. Check the individual plan details for your selected option.
