“I ordered an eSim for Greece and it simply didn't work upon landing which is what I've come to expect after many similar purchases from other vendors. In my opinion no one should spend valuable time debugging such issues abroad so we simply ordered from a different vendor and everything worked right away. I asked Airhub for a refund and they didn't even reply to my request.”

Airhub Greece

“I bought 14 300GB eSIMs for Europe and they all stopped working when they reached 35GB. I filed a complaint with AirHub and they told me they didn't actually provide 300GB and only offered 35GB. I asked for a refund and they never gave it to me. That company is a scam. Stay away if you don't want to be scammed.

AIRHUB is a SCAM. They are thieves who steal your money and give you eSIMs with less GB than they offer.”

“Nine hours, no QR code, no support, no refund, not even an e-mail from a real person, nothing. Ripoff. I hate to admit it, but I’ve been scammed. How do you allow these scammers to be here? Are you in on it, too?”

Airhub Greece

“Did not have a great experience with Airhub. They had multiple sets of instructions which conflicted with each other. Both instructions said to change the APN from the default configuration but had different values for what to change it to. Internet connection would sometimes stop working entirely *regardless* of what I set it to in Spain, and in Greece only seemed to work when I reset it to the default (not either of the values from the instructions).

Good price per GB, but not that valuable if it doesn't work. I don't plan to use Airhub again in the future.”

BNESIM Greece

“I tried so many esim providers. Some worked, some less, but when I discovered BNESIM on esimdb I decided to never change. Their prices are amazing, they have real no expiration plans and the prices are very honest.
I used it in my summer vacation in Greece, in a business trip in USA and I could not be more happy. They are the only provider offering international voice calls and virtual numbers, with many other services (VPN!). ”

GlobaleSIM Greece

“This was a surprisingly great experience actually!

I consider myself a little bit of a technophobe so I was VERY hesitant, but the online chat helped me through the installation and was super patient.

Overall, would definitely try again on my next vacation. Hopefully, it’ll arrive sooner rather than later :)”

Greece Travel eSIM FAQ

Everything you need to know about using eSIMs in Greece

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

In Greece, there are over 180 travel eSIM brands and more than 15, 200 prepaid data plans. With such a wide variety of options available, travelers can easily discover an eSIM that matches their data needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Greece?

Unlimited data eSIM plans for Greece are available from several carriers, commonly priced between about $2.40 and $30.00 USD for short‑term validity windows. Typical plans run for 1 to 10 days and all give unlimited data, though most providers limit speeds or throttle bandwidth after a period of heavy use. For example, abesteSIM, MicroEsim, and Yesim set a 10 Mbps cap when throttling occurs, while Earth Esim offers variants capped at 5 Mbps or 10 Mbps. Ohayu’s plan limits speed to 1 Mbps if throttled. Some providers, such as Roamify, EtravelSIM, Truely, and Orange Travel, do not specify hard speed caps aside from a general speed‑throttling note. Wiiline adds a 5 Mbps cap or a 512 kbps reduced speed band during throttling. Prices vary within the stated range, so users should compare the specific validity length, speed limits, and any tethering allowances before selecting a plan that fits their data needs.

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

Cosmote: Greece's largest telecom operator, offering extensive mobile coverage nationwide.
Vodafone Greece: A major provider delivering comprehensive mobile services across the country.
Wind Hellas: A significant operator offering a range of mobile services throughout Greece.

In addition to these major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), Greece hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). MVNOs provide mobile services by leasing access from the major carriers. Examples include Q-Telecom and Cyta Mobile. However, most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of MNOs rather than MVNOs.

Can I get a travel eSIM with a phone number and SMS for Greece?

Yes, travel eSIMs that include a phone number and SMS are available for Greece. Several providers offer these services, such as GlobaleSIM, EtravelSIM, Orange Travel, Airhub, and JamboSim. These plans provide a voice number and SMS capability and list a dialing code; the code varies, with some plans using foreign numbers such as +1, +44, or +48, and Airhub providing a local Greece number with the +30 code.

Typical pricing for these plans starts around $4 for a 1‑GB, 7‑day option and rises to about $10‑$15 for 30‑day packages that include 2‑GB or more of data. Validity periods range from 7 to 30 days, and the voice and SMS capabilities are advertised as inbound/outbound. Travelers can choose a plan that best suits their need for local calling and SMS, noting that only the +30 code gives a true local Greek number.
