Best eSim For Greece (Local & International Providers)

Orange Holiday Europe eSim

Orange Holiday Europe eSim is an all-inclusive eSim plan that can fully replace a physical sim card. You get 20 GB of mobile data and a (French) phone number, so you can make calls and send/receive text messages without any roaming charges. It’s worth noting that I’ve not seen anything similar with any other eSim provider, so this is by far the best option if you need a monthly eSim plan for Greece that includes everything.

And don’t worry that it’s a French number; it’s still the European Union, so you can make calls, send texts, and use mobile data without any additional charges. The only catch is that you need to register your eSim within the first month if you don’t want it to get deactivated when the plan stops being valid.

This eSim will cost you around 39 Euros. It’s expensive, but worth it if you want an all-inclusive plan.

Orange Holiday Zen eSim

Orange Holiday Zen eSim is an all-inclusive eSim plan, similar to the previous Orange Holiday Europe eSim plan. The Zen plan is valid for two weeks, as opposed to thirty days of the previous plan, and it includes a smaller data allowance. You get 8 GB of mobile data, and you only need to pay some 20 Euros for this plan.

You will also get a French phone number so you can make and receive calls, as well as send and receive text messages. The data plan even includes free phone minutes and 200 free texts to Europe and worldwide, and it’s genuinely one of the best two-week plans you can buy for Greece, especially if having a phone number is important to you.

Holafly

Holafly is the most popular eSim provider for travelers who need an unlimited data plan. All of their eSim options for Greece include unlimited data, and they differ in the duration of the plan. The most affordable plan is active for five days, while the most expensive plan gets you almost three months of unlimited data in Greece.

You don’t get a local phone number with the Holafly eSim, but that’s the case with most eSim providers. Also, one major downside of Holafly is that they don’t allow data sharing, meaning you’ll be able to access the Internet only on the device on which the eSim is active. This is an issue if you want to create a hotspot that your friends and family could use as well.

It’s worth noting that Holafly also offers regional eSim plans that are priced identically to individual-country plans. If you’re planning to visit more than one country in Europe, a regional Europe eSim plan is the best value for money.

Nomad

Nomad is another popular international eSim provider with some really good data plans for Greece. Their data plans are actually cheaper than Airalo, which doesn’t happen very often. Nomad’s eSim plans for Greece start at $4.5 for 1GB that’s valid for a week, and go up to $35 for 20 GB that you can use over a month.

The cheapest monthly data plan for Greece is $8.50 for 3 GB, which is the best deal for month-long Internet access. Also, it’s worth noting that you can always purchase additional data once you spend everything in the initial plan, so there’s no reason to overpay for data that you might not even use.

Nomad also has regional data plans that offer coverage in 25 or 35 European countries (both plans include Greece), but they’re more expensive than individual data plans for Greece. These plans are worth considering only if your travel plans include going outside of Greece.

Airalo

Airalo offers eSim data plans in Greece starting from just $5. The cheapest plan from this eSim provider includes 1 GB of data that’s valid for an entire week, and it’s the perfect data plan for travelers who just want to have the safety net of internet access in case they need it.

The priciest plan from the same eSim provider is $49, and it includes 20 GB of data that is valid for an entire month. This is a pretty good deal for a longer stay in Greece, especially if you usually use a lot of data while you’re traveling. It’s important to note that Airalo has a bunch of other and cheaper plans that are valid for an entire month, so you can ensure you stay connected in Greece for 30 days for as low as $9.

Airalo also offers regional plans for Europe, but they are a bit more expensive than the individual country plans. They’re worth it, in case you are planning to visit other countries in Europe or the European Union, in addition to Greece.

Ubigi

Ubigi is a good option if you want a regional eSim plan that’s active in Europe or even worldwide. They don’t offer individual country plans, so their eSim packages are a little pricier compared to the likes of Airalo and Nomad.

On the other hand, Ubigi also has one of the cheapest eSim plans that’s active in Greece, and it’s perfect for travelers who are in the country for only a little while. The plan is active for just one day and it costs $2, for 500 MB of data. Most of their other data plans are valid for at least 30 days and include anywhere from 1 GB to 50 GB of mobile data.

Another thing to note about Ubigi is that they also sell monthly plans that are active for as long as you keep paying the subscription. The cheapest one is $12 per month and it includes 5 GB of data. You can use it in all 27 countries of the European Union, plus the UK and Switzerland.

AIS SIM2Fly

AIS SIM2Fly is a Thailand-based company, so it’s not the best option for traveling to Europe. This is a good option for Thailand nationals, mostly because of the wide availability of these eSIMs in their region.

This provider doesn’t offer individual country plans for Europe. Instead, they have one global plan that you can buy for $33. It includes

• 6 GB of data
• is valid for two weeks
• unlimited 2G Internet access
• a Thai number for calls & SMS

You can easily top up the plan once you use up the initial data.

O2 Go Card

The O2 Go Card is intended for UK residents traveling abroad, or simply those who prefer a prepaid data plan instead of a postpaid one. The eSim grants you access to the O2 network, which includes Internet access in Greece without any data roaming charges,

You can purchase the O2 Go Card either directly from the network operator or from a different provider like SimOptions. The latter might be a better solution for international travelers, simply because it’s a little easier to pick it up and activate it.

The card includes 10 GB of data valid for 30 days, for $25. It also includes a Czech phone number, which allows you to make phone calls and send/receive texts without roaming charges in Greece.

SimOptions Smart Comfort X

The Smart Comfort X is a data plan offered by SimOptions, a popular international eSim provider. This provider offers their own eSim as well as eSims from other network providers, so you can easily compare deals on their website and find the best one for you.

Their eSim includes 5 GB of data valid for 30 days, and it costs around $18. The eSim does not include a phone number, but it’s also worth noting that it’s a regional eSim, meaning you will be able to use it in 26 other European countries, in addition to Greece. While you are in Greece, you will have access to the Nova network with the SimOptions eSim.
