Is the eSIM good for a day trip across the border to Serbia?

No - this is a Hungary-only plan, so data stops working once you cross into Serbia near Röszke. It keeps working perfectly anywhere in Hungary, but for Subotica or Novi Sad you would need separate roaming or a Serbian eSIM.

Does the eSIM work on Szeged's trams and trolleybuses?

Yes. Szeged is compact and well covered, so you will have steady data on the trams, trolleybuses and along the Tisza. Coverage stays strong across the centre and only thins in the rural floodplains outside town.

Good to know in Szeged

Szeged has no passenger airport, so most travellers arrive by train or car from Budapest, around two and a half hours away; keep your eSIM on for live MÁV departures and platform changes.

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.
