eSIM for the Balkans

For business travelers crossing several countries per quarter, the most efficient setup is a regional plan that covers most of your itinerary plus single-country top-ups for outliers. Within Europe, the Esimy Europe regional plan covers 47+ countries on one eSIM — from €1.99 / 1 GB / 7 days for short trips, €9.49 / 5 GB / 45 days for typical quarterly use, scaling up to 15 GB (€19.99), 20+5 GB (€24.99), or 50 GB (€44.99) for 45-day windows. For unpredictable trips, the Unlimited / 7-day plan at €22.99 is the safety choice. For Balkans-heavy itineraries (Belgrade, Tirana, Sarajevo, Skopje routes), the Esimy Balkans regional plan covers 9 Balkan countries from €3.49 for 1 GB / 7 days up to 30 GB / 30 days for €34.99. Quarterly travelers also earn 5% cashback into their Esimy Wallet on every purchase, which compounds into meaningful credit across a year. Use the Esimy dashboard or mobile app to label each eSIM by trip (“Q2 Berlin,” “Q3 Tirana”) so finance reconciliation stays clean. Need invoices for expense claims? Every Esimy receipt is downloadable as a VAT-compliant PDF directly from the dashboard.

Esimy regional plans are the best fit for cruise itineraries because they cover all common port countries on one eSIM — no need to buy a separate plan for every port. Pick the regional plan matching your cruise:

• Mediterranean / Greek Islands cruise — Esimy Europe regional (47+ countries, includes Italy, Greece, Croatia, Spain, France, Portugal, Cyprus, Malta) — €1.99 starting
• Adriatic / Balkans coastal cruise — Esimy Balkans regional (Albania, Croatia, Montenegro, Greece, and more) — €3.49 starting
• East Asia / Southeast Asia cruise — Esimy Asia regional (Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia) — €3.49 starting

Important: Esimy connects to land-based mobile networks only. While at sea, you’ll need to use your ship’s satellite Wi-Fi or onboard cellular service (those are separate). The Esimy plan activates and works automatically once you reach port and your phone connects to a partner local carrier. 5% Loyalty Points back into your Esimy Wallet on every plan.
