Will it connect at Marco Polo Airport?

It does — the eSIM activates the moment you land at Marco Polo, latching onto TIM, Vodafone or WindTre. You'll have data to track your Alilaguna water bus or the bus to Piazzale Roma before you even reach the water.

Is it good for day trips to Murano, Burano and the Lido?

Perfectly. This is one national Italy plan, so the islands, the Lido beaches and mainland trips to Verona or Padua all run on the same eSIM. Ferry times and tickets stay live wherever the lagoon takes you.

Good to know in Venice

Venice has no cars — you navigate by foot and vaporetto water bus, so download offline maps before you arrive. From Marco Polo, the Alilaguna water bus glides you straight to San Marco with live tracking on your phone.

Two simple ways to buy

Venice eSIM plans: unlimited, or by the GB.

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

Plan your data

How much data do you need in Venice?

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

Venice eSIM: your local data guide.

Venice is a glorious maze — a thousand bridges and unmarked calli where even locals lose their way, and where house numbers follow no logic. A Venice eSIM keeps live maps, vaporetto timetables and restaurant bookings working as you thread from St Mark's Square to a quiet Cannaregio bacaro, plus ferry times out to Murano and Burano.

One eSIM for Venice and all of Italy. It's the national Italy eSIM — from $2.15/day with unlimited data, working the same in Venice as it does the moment you leave it.

Landing at Venice Marco Polo Airport (VCE)?

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 Venice.

Piazza San Marco

Book your Basilica and Doge's Palace slots, check acqua alta tide alerts and beat the queues with live timings.

Rialto & the Grand Canal

Track the right vaporetto line down the canal and pin the market stalls and cicchetti bars worth stopping for.

Dorsoduro & Cannaregio

Wander the quieter districts with offline maps to hand, then book a canal-side table without backtracking over three bridges.

Murano & Burano

Check ferry departures to the glass and lace islands, and share photos of Burano's painted houses straight from the dock.

The practical bit

Getting around Venice on your eSIM.

Apps you'll want online in Venice

AVM Venezia official app— Buy vaporetto water-bus tickets and check ACTV timetables; needs data to pay and plan.
Alilaguna— Book water-bus transfers between Marco Polo airport and the city; needs data to reserve seats.
Google Maps— Navigate Venice's maze of alleys and bridges on foot; needs data as landmarks vanish quickly.
Moovit— Plan vaporetto routes and mainland Mestre train connections in real time; needs data throughout.

How long to stay in Venice

Two to three days is typical for Venice, enough for St Mark's, the Rialto, a vaporetto ride down the Grand Canal and a hop out to Murano and Burano.

How much data for Venice

Around 3 GB covers a Venice visit comfortably, since you'll lean heavily on maps to navigate the alleys plus ticket and ferry apps, with light users fine on 1 GB and streamers choosing Unlimited.

Coverage in Venice

Coverage is solid across central Venice, the main vaporetto routes and Mestre on the mainland, but signal can dip among the dense stone alleys, inside St Mark's, and out on the quieter lagoon islands.

Peace of mind

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

Your Venice eSIM handles the internet while you travel. Your home number stays exactly where it is — no surprise roaming charges in Venice, 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.

Before you fly

Venice eSIM questions, answered.

Yes. Coverage across the main islands is reliable, so vaporetto apps, tickets and live maps work as you cross the lagoon. Signal can dip inside the narrowest alley clusters, so keep an offline map handy for the tightest corners.
