Good to know
Botswana requires local prepaid SIMs to be registered against your passport at the point of sale. A travel eSIM is set up before you fly, so you skip the registration counter and connect the moment you land in Gaborone or Maun.
Unlimited, honestly.

Unlimited plans run at full speed up to a daily fair-use allowance, then at reduced speed until the allowance resets the next day — you're never cut off. Every plan is prepaid: the checkout total is the whole bill, and we never add overage charges.

Hotspot support varies by plan and destination — where it's available for your plan in Botswana, it's shown in the plan details before you pay.

The Botswana eSIM guide.

Botswana is a bucket-list safari country, and most trips route through Maun and Kasane before heading into camp. Mobile data is solid across Gaborone, Francistown and the safari gateway towns, so an eSIM keeps lodge bookings, transfer confirmations, mokoro photos and calls home flowing between game drives.

How it works on the day

Install before you fly, then switch the eSIM on at Sir Seretse Khama International in Gaborone or at Maun Airport. It latches onto Mascom or Orange Botswana automatically — no shop queue, no local paperwork, no swapping out your home SIM.

Choosing your days

Most safaris run 5 to 10 days across the Delta, Chobe and Kalahari, with a night either side in town. Choose a data bundle that covers the whole trip, and check the daily rate for shorter city stopovers.

The short version.

A travel eSIM is data only. It sits next to your home SIM, so your number, texts and WhatsApp carry on as normal. Pick unlimited, priced per day, or a fixed bundle of GB if it's mostly maps and messages. Install it on Wi-Fi before you fly — the days only start once it first connects in Botswana, and it finds a partner network on its own.
