Where you will travel
Coverage gets spotty in the Andes and the Amazon: download maps and your lodge’s details before you go.
- Machu Picchu and the Inca Trail
- There is no signal for most of the Inca Trail, and at Machu Picchu it comes and goes by network. Hotels and restaurants in Aguas Calientes have Wi-Fi.
- The Amazon around Puerto Maldonado
- Signal depends on the lodge: Tambopata Ecolodge has Claro signal in its bar and lounge, while Collpas Tambopata Inn generally has none.
- Lake Titicaca’s islands
- Phone signal is limited on Amantaní: tell family before you cross the lake.
Arriving in Peru
A Peruvian SIM needs your passport, and the phone must then be registered with the network: an unregistered phone from abroad gets a text and two business days before it is blocked. Phones roaming on a foreign line, like the South America eSIM, need no paperwork.

Questions about eSIM in Peru
Which eSIM should I get for Peru?
The South America eSIM on this page: one prepaid plan for Peru, Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Ecuador. Choose the days of your trip and the data you need, and the QR code appears seconds after payment.
Is the Peru eSIM a Peruvian line?
No. For Peru we sell the South America eSIM, which roams on a partner network in each country it covers, so turn on data roaming for the eSIM line. A phone roaming on a foreign line needs no paperwork in Peru.
Does it keep working when I cross a border?
Yes. The same eSIM works in Peru, Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Ecuador, so there is no new plan to buy in each country.
Do I have to register my phone in Peru?
Not with the South America eSIM: phones roaming on a foreign line need no paperwork. With a Peruvian SIM, you register the phone at the network’s store, and an unregistered phone from abroad is blocked two business days after a warning text.
Do I need to turn on data roaming?
Yes, for the eSIM line only: the plan roams on a partner network in each country. Keep data roaming off on your usual SIM, so your home carrier cannot charge you for roaming.
Can I keep my WhatsApp number?
Yes. Your usual SIM stays in your phone with your number for calls and texts, and WhatsApp keeps the same number while the eSIM carries your data.
What if the eSIM does not work?
You get a full refund if it does not work and we cannot fix it, or if it is not delivered. Write to contact@esimamericas.com with your order link.
