Is Victoria a separate eSIM from the rest of Australia?

No. It's the one national Australia eSIM, so the same plan covers Melbourne, the Great Ocean Road and everywhere else in the country on a single allowance - no need to buy another when you cross state lines.

Will I get signal in the Grampians or high country?

Main towns like Halls Gap have coverage, but signal fades on remote walking trails, in the Grampians ranges and across the alpine high country. Save trail maps offline before heading into national parks.

Good to know in Victoria

Melbourne's free Tram Zone covers the CBD - no fare needed - but touch on with a Myki elsewhere. Keep data live so tram-tracker apps show real-time arrivals, handy in the city's notoriously changeable weather.

Best time to visit Victoria

March to May offers crisp, clear autumn days and vineyard colour, while summer suits the Great Ocean Road and beach towns despite bigger crowds.

Two simple ways to buy

Victoria eSIM plans: unlimited, or by the GB.

Every Victoria eSIM from My Holiday SIM is one of two straightforward types. Pick whichever fits how you travel in Victoria — you can always top up or switch on your next trip.

Traveller streaming and browsing freely on an unlimited-data travel eSIM

Unlimited plans

High-speed data, nothing to count

Priced per day — the longer you stay, the better the daily rate. Ideal for streaming, hotspot and longer trips where you'd rather not watch a data meter. A fair-use policy keeps speeds fast for everyone; see each plan for the detail.

Best for streaming, video calls & hotspot
Great for longer or open-ended trips
One price per day — no GB anxiety

By-the-GB plans

3GB10GB20GB

A set bundle, brilliant value

A fixed data allowance (say 3 GB or 10 GB) valid for your travel days. The best-value pick for lighter trips built around maps, messaging and a bit of browsing. Running low? Top up in a couple of taps — nothing to reinstall.

Victoria eSIM: your local data guide.

Victoria packs Melbourne's coffee laneways, the Twelve Apostles along the Great Ocean Road, Yarra Valley cellar doors and the goldfields towns into one compact state. A Victoria eSIM keeps navigation, tram trackers and restaurant bookings running whether you're in the CBD or driving the coast toward Port Campbell. You'll lean on data for penguins at Phillip Island too.

One eSIM for Victoria and all of Australia. It's the national Australia eSIM — from $3.16/day with unlimited data, working the same in Victoria as it does the moment you leave it.
