See what travelers are saying about their Turkey eSIM experience. Real feedback from real users to help you pick the best plan for your trip.

“I've used Truely unlimited data in UK, Serbia, Thailand, Turkey and KSA during my backpacking trip. The unlimited data was genuinely nice considering I had to work while traveling. I had issue with the KSA plan once but was fixed pretty fast. The rest of the destination was all good.”

“The SIM card works only with “Türk Telekom” and “Vodafone Turkey” networks. During the day, the internet speed was good, around 20 Mb/s, but every day after 6:00 p.m., the speed dropped to 1–2 Mb/s. This was very frustrating, and sometimes web pages wouldn’t even load. In my opinion, this isn’t the fault of the eSIM provider, but rather “Türk Telekom.” The solution to this problem is to manually select “Vodafone Turkey” towers on your phone. On Vodafone towers, the internet works reliably at all times.
You must install the eSIM before arriving in Turkey; otherwise, you won’t be able to do it. Turkey blocks eSIM installation. This applies to every carrier.”

“Unfortunately, the card only connects to “Türk Telekom” transmitters. During the day, the internet speed was good, around 20 Mb/s, but every day after 6:00 p.m., the speed dropped to 1–2 Mb/s. This was very frustrating, and sometimes web pages wouldn’t even load. In my opinion, this isn’t the fault of the eSIM provider, but rather “Türk Telekom.”
You must activate the eSIM before arriving in Turkey; otherwise, you won’t be able to do it. Turkey blocks eSIM activation. This applies to every carrier.”

“Fast delivery and good quality”

“It´s a good esim, especially the no expiry version. I load data and use it every time I get there and top up when needed.”

“Bought the Europe plan for my 20‑day trip. It worked perfectly — fast, reliable, and I never ran out of data.
Recommended”

“Fraud, did not send eSim. Not recommended. Avoid that service.”

“Very slow, it's no longer useful for anything except text”

“It worked for a short time and I downloaded about 3 MB of emails. Then I disabled data roaming and renabled it the next day when I didn't have wifi. I could not get it to work again - the phone kept prompting me to set a carrier name. There was no help on their website. I never got it to work so my money was wasted. They send me an email with a link to review the purchase but that did not work. They claim to refund non-function sims if you email them but I have emailed twice with no response. I think this company should not be trusted.”

“I previously left a negative review, but after trying this eSIM again for my trip to Turkey, I want to update my opinion.
The connection worked perfectly during the whole trip — stable, fast internet with no issues at all. The price was also very low compared to other providers, which was a nice surprise.
The only issue I had was that the QR code was not sent automatically to my email after purchase because I used the express checkout option without registration. The website chat didn’t work, and it was very difficult to even find their support email since the site doesn’t clearly show any contact information. However, after I contacted them by email, support quickly sent me the QR code and everything worked fine after that.
Overall, a much better experience this time. Good speeds, reliable service, and great pricing for Turkey.”

“I paid for the purchase, nothing came to the mail, the support is also dead.”

“This eSİM claims to roam with 2 Turkish networks, which was my reason to buy. This is not true. Like many other travel eSİMs, it connects to Avea/TT only. Turkcell, although mentioned as a roaming partner, does not connect, says "not allowed"
I contacted support, but they behave as if they do not understand. Final recommendation, after a couple of emails, was to just set the phone to automatic selection. Hey!”

“Good”

“Very good Experience”

“Good”

“It was very good and nice”

“Good”

“Nice”

“Terrible
Dishonest company, advertised free plan 500MB does not exist.”

“eSIM is based in Gambia and this was not specified anywhere. It provides a horrible latency (500ms) and no 5G as specified. Stay away”

“Good instructions and super easy setup - super cheap, thought in the beginning it was sketchy but it’s not.
Could install the card before traveling which meant it didn’t require network for setup in the target country.
Nice that the website shows the data usage.”

“Bnesim works really well in Istanbul – I usually get speeds between 70 and 100 Mbps. And their customer service is great – they reply within just a couple of minutes.”

“took 2 mins to activate but it said in the mail it'd take 30mins even up to 24 hrs, scared me a little”

“Ik had 2 e-sim gekocht van 20 GB ieders. Die van mij werkte meteen perfect. Die van mijn vrouw niet. Na een korte mail wisseling een nieuwe e-sim gekregen. Deze werkte daarna perfect. Super service van LinkeSIM!
Bereik en snelheid was prima.
Volgende keer kijk ik weer bij deze provider.”

“After a satisfied test in 2024 with Yesim in Turkey, it was clear to me to go for an eSIM from Yesim also during my vacation in 2025.
Activation is super easy, it is even possible to buy it in advance and activate it at a later time (for example, when the vacation starts). Deferred activation. Very convenient.
I was curious about the connection speed in 2025 and was amazed at how fast the Internet was with Türk Telekom.
In 2025 the download speed was between 30 and 50 Mbps and the upload was super high above 90 Mbps.
The network was 4G/ LTE+ - since 5G is almost not yet built out in Turkey (only in and around Istanbul and certain soccer stadiums)
You get a Polish IP address with Yesim (Polish provider Plus) which gives the advantage of being able to access/view/use all apps and websites without problems (Geoblock/Countryblock)
Very satisfied with Yesim and will use this app again in the future.
Turkish Riviera - Antalya - Belek
15GB Option used.
Used: May/June 2025”

“Used the Turkey eSIM right after landing in Istanbul. Had great connection during the bus ride to Cappadocia, could work and even stream movies without issues. Was great choice for me and will continue to use.”

“It so much easy to find best price plan. In one place I brought Europe 🌍 and turkey. Both on great price.”

“Honestly I was looking for the cheapest, but I got the best! Thank you bne sim, also your support was very quick and awesome. ”

“Used the 10 day unlimited (4GB daily + 512 kbps afterwards) and 100 minutes option. Got UK number with it. First day, especially on the road the speed was excellent, but definitely haven't downloaded 4 GB. Near our hotel in Side the speed was slow even with 5G or LTE, but reasonable for photos and messaging, worse for navigation. In the afternoon the sim often disconnected quite randomly and I had to turn airplane mode on and off even 10-20 times a day. Interesting is that it never happened during am hours.”

“I did use an very fast LTE+ mobile data in Türkiye via Instabridge (which gave an polish internet connection). It is cheaper than local plans (20 GB with unlimited social app and 200min and some SMS 1400-1500 TRY (aprox 41-43.93 USD) - türkcell or vodafone) while Instabridge with 20GB for 7 days is 18.14 USD.”

“Very slow network 👎🏼👎🏼”

“Amazing, love this website”

“رائعة جداً”

“Great ”

“Unfortunatelly I had only some minutes internet connection after I arrived in the airport Antalya. The whole week I couldn't use the esim, even everything was configurated the correct way (as I mentioned, after I arrived in Turkey it worked for some minutes).
I won't use this esim anymore!
2 stars because the support team answered to my messages, even they couldnt really help.
”

“The next used eSIM during my 15-day stay in Turkey is the Yesim eSIM.
3GB Option for 30 days. ('Balkans-Region-Option' due to promo)
This worked fine as well.
Activation without any troubles.
In the region where I was, Turkish Riviera, I could only connect to Turk Telecom with 4G-speed. When trying manually to connect to other networks, this was not possible. Maybe that is just a local setting and may not be the case in other places in Turkey.
After using Vodafone with my previous eSIM, the now used Turk Telecom was perfectly working. The speed was roundabout the speed of Vodafone, did not feel any difference when using the internet.
Speed test as per below.
I would recommend to use the Yesim eSIM in Turkey.
Used: May 2024”

“Used the GoMoWorld eSIM in Turkey.
3.5GB Option for 7 days.
This worked fine.
Activation without any troubles.
In the region where I was, Turkish Riviera, I could only connect to Vodafone Turkey with 4G-speed. On Turkcell only 3G was possible. When trying manually to connect or force the phone to 4G, I got the message that no connection was possible. Maybe that is just a local setting and may not be the case in other places in Turkey.
Vodafone 4G however was workable.
Speed test as per below.
I would recommend to use the GoMoWorld eSIM for the use in Turkey.
Used: May 2024”

“Excellent. Used on many visits.”

“Mobimatter (eSimGo) 3GB 5G eSim. Worked fine in Türkiye. Good speed, no problems. Host network: Turkcell 4G. Unfortunately there was no 5G in Türkiye, so I should have selected 4G version of this SIM that was bit cheaper.
Initially (right after landing) it took a while to register in the host network, several refuses, but after that -- no problems. Also I tried this SIM in Estonia: Host networks: Telia (5G, 4G), Tele2 (4G). Worked seamless.”

“At first did not work and after 2 hours of trying everything I'm told in the e-mail they sent me and failing many times to connect, with frustration I deleted my eSIM (never do that) but when I informed the company, they provided a new QR code with automated connection details which worked like a charm. I'm getting 4.5G with no drops, no slowing downs etc. It is now a 5-star deal but being frustrated at first, I'm cutting 1 star and giving a 4.”

“30”

“Airalo APP is really great, but service is very poor.
In Japan when it connects it's very fast on DOCOMO, often it cannot connect to KDDI (when it does, it's fast too). The big issue with Airalo for me, on a Pixel 6a and Pixel 4a is availability.
In all 3 countries (Eurolink, Asialink, Japan, Turkey cards) I frequently loose connectivity and have no signal even after restarting the phone (even in central train stations, airport, etc).
Japan and Asia cards are going via SingTel Singapore (but I have a Singtell card and the experience is better than Airalo).
Turkey card goes through OVH france, Netflix doesn't work.
Eurolink, only 3G in Georgia so couldn't connect 99% of the time. When it did, it was extremely slow that even whatsapp not going through easily.
Two different phones, both Pixel phones though.”

“Yeah”

“Disconnects every 3 minutes for 5-10 minutes in Istanbul. Credit check number *153 doesn't work (reports wrong number). Not usable.”

“I took it on a trip from two different operators. From 3h did not work in Georgia. Globalesim worked without problems in Russia, Armenia, Turkey, Georgia.”
Everything you need to know about using eSIMs in Turkey
There are about 260 travel eSIM providers and roughly 27 600 prepaid data plans available in Turkey, offering a wide variety of options so travelers can easily find an eSIM that suits their needs.
Yes, several providers offer unlimited data eSIM plans for Turkey. Among them are ASIMGO, ESIM.DOG, Roamify, Earth Esim, abesteSIM, AeriSIM, SparkRoam, Giga.Tel, Roambit, AeroSims, Yesim, EtravelSIM, esimzon, and Numero eSIM. Most of these plans allow tethering but may include throttling or a speed cap, such as a limit of 512 kbps up to 10 Mbps; for example, ASIMGO offers speeds up to 10 Mbps, ESIM.DOG caps at 384 kbps to 1 Mbps, and Earth Esim supplies up to 10 Mbps while others range between 512 kbps and 10 Mbps. Price ranges for unlimited data plans span roughly from $1.19 to $10.47, with most options falling between about $1.30 and $10.00. Travelers should review each provider’s specific speed limits and throttling policies before selecting a plan.
In Turkey, the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) providing infrastructure for travel eSIMs are:
Turkcell: The largest mobile operator in Turkey, offering extensive coverage and advanced services, including 2G, 3G, 4.5G (LTE), and ongoing 5G testing.
Vodafone Turkey: A major provider with comprehensive 2G, 3G, 4.5G (LTE), and 5G (testing) services, known for its wide network reach.
Türk Telekom: Offers a range of services across 2G, 3G, 4.5G (LTE), and is currently testing 5G, contributing significantly to the country's mobile infrastructure.
Additionally, Turkey hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) that lease access from these major carriers to provide mobile services. Notable examples include BİMcell and Pttcell. However, it's important to note that most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the primary MNOs rather than MVNOs.
Travel eSIMs that include a phone number and SMS for Turkey are available from several providers.
GlobaleSIM offers Turkey data plans with a phone number in the +1 dialing code; calls and inbound SMS are supported but the number is not local to Turkey.
EtravelSIM sells Turkey plans with a +44 number, also non‑local, with inbound and outbound SMS and voice.
eSIMMigo provides Turkey plans that use the +90 dialing code, giving a local Turkish phone number along with inbound and outbound SMS and voice.
AirPlans offers a global plan that works in Turkey, using a +1 number and supporting both SMS and voice.
These plans range from 1 GB to 10 GB of data, valid for 7 to 30 days, and start around $4½ USD. Travelers who need a local Turkish number should choose an eSIMMigo plan with the +90 code.
