Keeping in touch while you’re travelling abroad can easily become a pricey affair. Data roaming charges can be extortionate, and making just one call on your mobile can cost a mini fortune. In remote destinations, WiFi can be patchy too, leaving you at a digital loose end. That’s why it’s an excellent idea to buy an eSIM plan before you set off.
What is an eSIM?
An eSIM works from software already pre-installed in your phone, and allows you to connect to local cell networks, without the need for roaming. Almost every modern phone has an in-built eSIM, so you don’t have to fiddle around with swapping your tiny SIM card.
Save 5% on eSIMs with Saily
At Travel Nation, we’ve teamed up with Saily, a leading provider of eSIM plans. It’s a brilliant service that makes staying in touch a breeze. The set-up process is swift and painless, and the plan activates automatically as soon as you touch down. Simply install the Saily app, choose your eSIM package, and it will start working the moment that you land.
Another huge bonus of Saily is that you only pay for what you need. For example, if you’re heading to Argentina for a week, you can simply choose the 7-day plan. For trips that run longer than a week, you can choose to buy 3GB, 5GB, 10GB or 20GB, depending on how much you think you’ll use. It’s reliable AND reasonably priced.
Saily can connect you to local networks in over 200 destinations across the globe, and its ad blockers mean that your valuable data won’t be wasted on flashing banners or pop-up adverts. It also blocks any malicious URLs and includes added web protection, so you know you’re in safe hands.

“I've just used Saily in the Seychelles, where I bought a 3GB eSIM for around £15. It was so easy to set up and coverage was fantastic, even in some really remote places.” - Jonny, Managing Director, Travel Nation
