Tourist eSIM eSIM Data Plans for Africa

Tourist eSIM does not offer true unlimited high‑speed data plans for Africa. All of the plans labelled “Unlimited” contain a fixed high‑speed data allowance of 1GB; once that limit is reached, the speed is throttled to 512 kbps. Therefore, the data is not unlimited in the sense of an unlimited high‑speed internet experience.

If a traveler wants more data without the speed reduction, Tourist eSIM provides sizeable fixed‑data plans such as the 100 GB 31‑day or 180‑day packages, and an 80 GB 365‑day plan. These alternatives offer high‑speed data for the full data allowance, which may be more cost‑effective for users who need substantial data over longer stays.

Tourist eSIM does not provide an Africa eSIM that includes a phone number or SMS capability. All available Africa plans from this provider are data‑only plans, so users do not receive an active phone number for voice or text communications.

Travelers who need to stay in touch can use popular VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection. These services allow voice calls and text messaging without requiring a local phone number or SMS.

Tourist eSIM offers eSIM coverage across the following African nations: Algeria, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, Cape Verde, Egypt, Ethiopia, Gabon, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea‑Bissau, Kenya, Liberia, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Mauritius, Mozambique, Nigeria, Réunion, Rwanda, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Senegal, Eswatini (Swaziland), Chad, Togo, Tunisia, Tanzania, Uganda, Mayotte, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Comoros, and Sudan.
