Data planning

Plan on 1–3 GB/day for navigation, messaging, and photo sharing if you're active on the road; lower usage for light travelers. Remote highland areas may need extra offline maps.

Insider tips

  • Public Wi‑Fi is limited outside hotels and cafes—use your eSIM for safer, more reliable access.
  • Road travel and 4x4s are common—download route maps in advance for stretches with limited signal.
