The selected subscription with GoMobile is a disaster. I never got an connection to the internet. The abo was active, but even with etisalat by e& 4G, not with the slower etisalad by e& 3G, it was possible to write any whatsApp, email or check a website.
The last year, with a data package from our local provide i got everytime Internet with etisalat. I would never choose a subscription with goMobile again.

Catastrophic experience with this operator.
Several eSIM changes due to failures in data speeds. Service was limited to 3G with speeds not even reaching Edge levels. The operator’s response: Even if the local network allows 5G (which I confirmed on another line) and good speeds, everything depends on our (terrible) agreements. Nothing can be done.

Of course, the website advertised 5G or 4G for Egypt, which turned out to be false (from Luxor to Aswan, which was my route).

Horrible. I wasted hours providing evidence, having to start over each time with different representatives.

Used the 7 days unlimited (1GB daily + 512kbps afterwards) plan. Was connected to Orange. Speeds slow even with LTE/5G almost all day even after 24hrs period. Messaging speed was good, sharing photos was slow but possible. Often got SSL errors, can't use banking apps at some times. Instead for the same money I recommend to buy 1 day plan and then physical sim or esim directly from Vodafone.

Everything is fine in Egypt. I had an ADB authentication problem, but it was promptly resolved in the chat. Of course, I had to connect to another network to resolve it. Otherwise, everything is fine.

I bought two esims and one of them doesn't work. I tried to contact support via chat or ticket but was ignored. Strongly not recommended.

Very bad. Got an unlimited daily plan but its actually not unlimited. Approach their support and they came back to say that its only unlimited for browsing, social networks and email with no limits.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many travel eSIM brands (providers) are available for use in Egypt, and how many prepaid data plans are there?

Currently, eSIMDB lists over 80 travel eSIM brands offering service in Egypt, with a substantial selection of over 2400 prepaid data plans available. This wide variety of options makes it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that suits their specific data needs and budget while visiting the country.

What are the major mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Egypt?

Egypt's mobile telecommunications sector is served by four major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):

Vodafone Egypt: A subsidiary of Vodafone Group Plc, offering extensive coverage and a wide array of services, including 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and recently launched 5G networks.
Orange Egypt: Part of the Orange Group, providing comprehensive mobile services with a robust 4G network and newly introduced 5G capabilities.
Etisalat Misr: A subsidiary of Etisalat UAE, delivering a range of mobile services over 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and newly launched 5G networks.
Telecom Egypt (WE): The state-owned operator offering mobile services across 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and recently launched 5G networks.

These MNOs provide the primary infrastructure for mobile services in Egypt. While there are Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) in the country, such as We Mobile, they operate by leasing access from these major carriers. It's important to note that most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of MNOs rather than MVNOs.
