eSIM Ecuador

On the mainland, coverage is excellent in major cities like Quito, Guayaquil, Cuenca, and Manta. In the Galapagos Islands, you will find 4G signal in the populated towns of Puerto Ayora (Santa Cruz) and Puerto Baquerizo Moreno (San Cristobal), though it may be slower than on the continent.

We partner with Ecuador’s leading providers like Claro and Movistar (Otecel). Claro generally offers the widest geographical coverage, which is crucial when traveling through the Andean valleys or along the coast.

For safety and convenience in cities, you will need data for Uber or Cabify and Google Maps. 5GB is usually sufficient for a week. If you are heading to the Galapagos, be aware that while you can upload photos, high-speed streaming might be limited by the island infrastructure, so download content beforehand.

Stand on the equator at Mitad del Mundo, snorkel with sea lions in the Galapagos, hike the Cotopaxi Volcano, and wander the historic streets of Cuenca.

Staying connected is vital for safety in Ecuador. Buying a physical SIM locally requires finding an open shop and registering with your passport. Our eSIM activates instantly, ensuring you have access to maps, translation, and emergency communication immediately upon arrival without exposing your personal documents in public shops.

Whether you are in the cloud forest of Mindo or the streets of Quito, our support team is available 24/7 to assist with any connectivity questions or top-ups.
