Does it work on the TTC subway and streetcars?

On streetcars and buses you'll have normal above-ground coverage. The subway is gaining cellular network by network, so some tunnels and stations are connected while others aren't yet — a quick offline map keeps you oriented between stops.

How much data do I need for a Toronto city break?

For maps, ride-hailing, messaging and social over a long weekend, most travellers are comfortable with 1–3GB. If you stream video or tether a laptop, choose a larger plan — and remember this Canada eSIM keeps working nationwide if you travel on.

Good to know in Toronto

Toronto's TTC has been rolling out mobile coverage across its subway, but it isn't everywhere underground yet — download your offline map and a few podcasts before a long Line 1 ride.

Two simple ways to buy

Toronto eSIM plans: unlimited, or by the GB.

Every Toronto eSIM from My Holiday SIM is one of two straightforward types. Pick whichever fits how you travel in Toronto — 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.

How much data do you need in Toronto?

A rough, honest guide to sizing your Toronto eSIM so you're not guessing. Most travellers in Toronto are comfortable on 3–5 GB a week — heavy streamers just go Unlimited.

Toronto eSIM: your local data guide.

From the moment you ride the elevator up the CN Tower, Toronto rewards travellers who stay online — mapping the TTC subway, booking a Toronto Islands ferry, or finding brunch in Kensington Market. A Toronto eSIM gives you data the second you land, so you can navigate Queen West, order a ride from the Distillery District, and share the skyline instantly.

One eSIM for Toronto and all of Canada. It's the national Canada eSIM — from $5.32/day with unlimited data, working the same in Toronto as it does the moment you leave it.

Landing at Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ)?

Install the QR at home, then switch the eSIM on as you taxi in — you're online before you reach the arrivals hall.

On the ground

Where you'll lean on data in Toronto.

Toronto Islands

Time your return ferry and follow the car-free island trails using live maps and transit apps.

Distillery District

The cobblestone lanes are easy to wander when you can pull up gallery hours, restaurant menus and a ride home.

Kensington Market

Hop between vintage shops and food stalls with maps, and translate menus across its many global kitchens.

CN Tower & Harbourfront

Upload EdgeWalk photos, book aquarium tickets and check ferry times along the waterfront without hunting for Wi-Fi.

The practical bit

Getting around Toronto on your eSIM.

Apps you'll want online in Toronto

Uber— Dominant ride-hailing across the GTA; live pricing, driver tracking and airport pickups all need data.
Transit— Real-time TTC subway, streetcar and bus arrivals; live tracking needs a data connection.
PRESTO— Load and manage your PRESTO fare card for TTC, GO and UP Express; reloading needs data.
Google Maps— Best for multimodal routing across the sprawling GTA; live traffic and transit both use data.

How long to stay in Toronto

Most visitors spend three to five days in Toronto, enough to cover Downtown, the CN Tower, Kensington Market, the Islands and a day trip out to Niagara.

How much data for Toronto

For a typical Toronto city break, 3–5 GB comfortably handles maps, Uber, transit tracking and social sharing; choose Unlimited if you'll stream on long GO/UP transit rides or tether a laptop for work.

Coverage in Toronto

Toronto has strong 5G across Downtown, Pearson Airport and the waterfront on Rogers, Bell and Telus; coverage now reaches much of the TTC subway too, though some deeper tunnel stretches still cut out.

Peace of mind

Your Toronto eSIM: data-only, zero bill shock.

Your Toronto eSIM handles the internet while you travel. Your home number stays exactly where it is — no surprise roaming charges in Toronto, no swapping your real SIM out.

Keep your number & WhatsApp

The eSIM is data-only and runs alongside your home SIM. Your number, iMessage and WhatsApp keep working exactly as they do at home.

No roaming bills, ever

Turn data roaming OFF on your home SIM and ON for the eSIM. You pay once, up front — no overage, no metered surprises, no bill waiting when you land home.

One thing worth knowing

Because it's data-only, the eSIM can't receive bank verification (OTP) text codes — those still go to your home number. Keep it reachable on Wi-Fi calling, or use app-based codes.
