Getting connected

Land first.
Then install.

1. Before you fly

   Your setup details arrive by email.

   We’ll email your setup details when your eSIM is ready. Save the email for your arrival.

   Wait until you have landed before using Quick Install, scanning the QR code, entering the manual code or activating the eSIM.

2. After you land

   Connect to Wi-Fi. Then install.

   Join the airport’s passenger Wi-Fi and complete its sign-in screen. Open a webpage to check you’re connected.

   Then open your SIM Shop setup email and follow the instructions to install and activate your eSIM.

   Before you go onlineSelect your travel eSIM for mobile data and turn on Data Roaming for that eSIM. Keep data roaming off on your usual SIM.

   Wi-Fi not working? Wait for hotel Wi-Fi or another steady, trusted connection before installing.

For the journey

Peru eSIM data for the journey

For a Cusco and Machu Picchu trip, download your transport and visit confirmations before setting out. Keep the pickup point, train booking and accommodation details together, so opening a ticket does not depend on having a connection at that moment.

Messages and calls in apps use your data. Standard calls, SMS and a local number need a separate mobile service.

Compare the available plans

Choose a fixed data allowance for your trip. Compare the total data, validity and price, then check the selected plan’s coverage and start window.

Buy Peru eSIM data before you travel. Pick the data amount that fits your trip and save the setup email, but do not tap quick install, scan the QR code, enter the manual code or activate the eSIM before departure.

Check whether your journey starts by bus or train

PeruRail offers train-only journeys and a combined bus-and-train service. Its bimodal route starts at Wánchaq in Cusco and transfers to a train at Ollantaytambo or Pachar, depending on the service. Follow your ticket’s departure instructions rather than heading automatically to a railway station.

Keep the final leg separate

Machu Picchu Pueblo is the train arrival point, with a further journey to the archaeological site. Keep the details for each part of your booking available offline, and use a connection to recheck the operator’s latest instructions before travelling.

These plans are data-only unless a product option says otherwise. They do not include a local phone number for standard calls or SMS. Check compatibility, coverage, validity and hotspot needs before purchase.

Recommended setup timing: buy before you fly, then install only after you land. Join the airport’s free passenger Wi-Fi where offered, complete its sign-in page and open a normal webpage to prove it works. If it is unavailable or unstable, wait for hotel Wi-Fi or another steady trusted connection. Open your SIM Shop setup email and install only when that Wi-Fi test works.
