Niger Travel Tips
Must-see hotspots
Niamey markets and National Museum, Agadez and the Aïr Mountains, Tenéré Desert, W National Park, Kouré giraffe reserve, Zinder's old town and Sultan's Palace.
Data planning
Expect to use 2–4 GB/week for maps, messaging, and light browsing. Add more data if you stream video or work remotely. Coverage is strongest in cities; plan extra for remote excursions.
Insider tips
- — Public Wi‑Fi is limited and often insecure — use your eSIM for safer, more reliable internet.
- — Travel infrastructure can be basic outside major towns. Use your eSIM to access local transport info, guides, and offline maps.
- — The dry season (November–February) offers cooler temperatures and better travel conditions. The rainy season (June–September) can make rural roads difficult.
