Navigate Ecuador with mobile data, from Quito's historic centre to Cuenca's colonial charm and the Avenue of Volcanoes. An Ecuador eSIM keeps you connected for booking tours, translating Spanish, and sharing your travel photos. Plans use the Movistar and Claro 4G networks. Coverage is strongest on the mainland; the Galápagos Islands have limited connectivity.
Tip: Most travellers pick 3-10GB plans for 7-30 day trips. Smaller plans are great for short stays or as a backup.

From confirming your Galápagos island-hopping schedule to navigating Quito's historic centre or translating at a local market, having data in Ecuador makes every day easier. With an Ecuador eSIM from Latam Travellers, you install your plan on your phone and get mobile data without hunting for SIM card shops or dealing with local paperwork.
Ecuador packs extraordinary diversity into a compact country: the Galápagos Islands, Amazonian jungle lodges, Andean peaks, and the colonial charm of Quito and Cuenca.
Networks: Your Ecuador eSIM connects to Movistar and Claro, with 4G data. These plans do not include 5G.
Where you'll have signal: Galápagos (Puerto Ayora)
Coverage is strongest in mainland cities and towns. The Galápagos has coverage on main islands (Santa Cruz, San Cristóbal). We cannot promise a signal in remote parts of the Amazon, so check your route before you rely on mobile data there.
Travel Tip: If visiting the Galápagos, download any important documents or maps in Guayaquil before flying, as island coverage can be inconsistent.
Our Ecuador eSIM plans are sized for every trip. Choose based on your travel style:
Yes. Puerto Ayora (Santa Cruz) and Puerto Baquerizo Moreno (San Cristóbal) have 4G coverage. Signal on boat tours and remote areas is limited.
Coverage in the Amazon region is limited. Many jungle lodges rely on WiFi, so download what you need before you go.
After you purchase, we email you your eSIM details: an SM-DP+ address and an activation code. You enter them by hand in your phone settings (iPhone: Settings, Cellular, Add eSIM, then Enter Details Manually. Android: Settings, Network, SIM, Add eSIM, then enter the details manually; menu names vary by brand). Install before your trip, enable when you land. Setup takes a few minutes.
Most phones from 2020 onwards support eSIM, including iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer. Your phone must be unlocked (not locked to a carrier).
