From Cairo to the Red Sea
A travel eSIM keeps you online across the places most visitors go, from Cairo and Luxor to the resorts along the Red Sea. It runs on Egypt's mobile networks, so you have data for maps, ride apps, translation and sharing photos wherever the coverage reaches.
Set up before you fly
Install the eSIM over wifi before you leave home, then activate it when you land. There's no counter to find after a long flight and no roaming to switch on — the plan is already on your phone, ready to connect as soon as you arrive in Egypt.
How much data to choose
Sightseeing with maps and messaging uses relatively little, so a modest plan suits a short break. If you're posting video from the Nile or the coast, or working as you go, a larger allowance gives you headroom, and you can top up whenever you need to.
FAQ
Will the eSIM work in Luxor and by the Red Sea?
Yes. It works wherever Egypt's mobile networks reach, which includes Cairo, Luxor and the main Red Sea resorts. Coverage can thin out in the open desert, so save offline maps if your plans take you well away from the towns.
Can I keep WhatsApp on my own number?
Yes. Your normal SIM stays in the phone, so your usual number keeps working for calls and texts. WhatsApp and your other apps run on your own account, using the eSIM only for data while you travel in Egypt.
When does it start counting my data?
Your allowance begins once you activate the plan and connect to a network in Egypt, not when you buy it. You can install it days ahead over wifi and switch it on only when you land.
