Airalo eSIM Data Plans for Kenya

Airalo does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for Kenya. The plans that include “Unlimited” in their name actually supply only 3 GB of high‑speed data per day; after that daily limit is reached the speed is throttled to 1000 kbps.

For travelers who need a large amount of data without daily click limits, Airalo offers fixed‑data plans such as Safarilink 50 GB for 30 days costing $99.00, Safarilink 20 GB for 15 days priced at $52.50, or Discover 20 GB for 365 days priced at $66.00. These plans allow the full data allowance to be used over their validity period without the daily cap and speed reduction.

Airalo does not offer a Kenya eSIM that comes with a phone number or SMS capability. The provider’s current catalogue for Kenya contains only data‑only eSIM plans, so if a traveler requires a local number to receive or send text messages, those options are not available.

For communication needs that do not require a phone number, travelers can use VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the mobile data connection. However, some destinations may block or restrict access to certain VoIP services, so users should confirm the availability of the apps they rely on in Kenya before purchasing an Airalo eSIM.

Airalo currently lists nine single‑country data packages and forty‑one multi‑country packages that include Kenya, for a total of about fifty distinct plans. Prices range from roughly six dollars to one‑fifty‑nine dollars, data allocations span from one gigabyte up to fifty gigabytes, and validity periods go from three to three‑hundred‑eighty‑five days. Among the offerings, some provide a fixed data amount for the entire validity period while others limit data on a daily basis, giving customers flexibility in choosing the type that best suits their usage.
