I am currently in north Italy at Lago dIseo close to Verona. I bought 3GB Monty eSIM for 5days. With almost full LTE reception I am experiencing single digit KB speeds, internet is only reasonably usable for text. At these speeds it is obviously impossible to use the data volume I paid for. Technically higher speeds are proven to be possible but I seem to be throttled after the first 100MB.
I decided to take a chance and sign up on-site since it was cheap. Less than 1,000 yen for 5G. To my relief, it connected just fine.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Monty eSIM offer unlimited data eSIM for Italy?
Monty eSIM does not provide an unlimited‑data eSIM specifically for Italy. Travelers can instead select from fixed data plans; for example, Monty offers a 50GB plan valid for 30 days that covers Italy plus many other countries, and a 50GB plan valid for 30 days that is restricted to Italy alone. A smaller 20GB plan valid for 30 days is also available for Italy and a handful of nearby destinations. For users who anticipate very heavy data consumption, a fixed‑data plan may deliver a better price‑to‑usage balance than a high‑cost unlimited alternative.
Does Monty eSIM offer Italy eSIM with phone number and SMS?
Monty eSIM does not offer an Italy eSIM plan that includes a phone number or SMS capability. The provider supplies only data‑only eSIM options for Italy. Travelers who need voice or messaging can use VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection instead of relying on a traditional phone number or SMS service.
How many data plans does Monty eSIM offer for Italy?
Monty eSIM offers 22 single‑country plans and 28 multi‑country plans for travelers to Italy. The plans span a price range from $1.50 to $104.60 and data caps from 500 MB up to 50 GB, with validity periods between 1 and 365 days. Monty provides both fixed data cap options—such as 500 MB, 1 GB, 5 GB, 10 GB, up to 50 GB, which offer a set amount of data for the entire validity period—and daily data cap options, which allow a smaller amount of data per day (up to 12 daily‑cap plans) to be used over the remaining days of the subscription.
