Yes, surprisingly! This is the most important question. The local networks (like Entel) have installed 4G/LTE towers in the middle of the salt flats. You will have a strong signal for most of the 1-day tour, allowing you to take those famous perspective videos, make WhatsApp calls, and upload photos instantly from the "world's largest mirror."
This specific plan is valid only within Bolivia. This is a critical point. If you are taking the bus from Puno (Peru) or doing the 3-day jeep tour ending in San Pedro de Atacama (Chile), your connection will stop at the border. For this, we highly recommend our Latin America Regional eSIM.
To give you the best coverage in a high-altitude, remote country, our eSIM connects to Bolivia’s premium providers, typically Entel or Tigo (Millicom). Entel is widely regarded as having the best and most extensive 4G network, especially in remote tourist areas like the Uyuni Salt Flats.
Intermittently. You will have a good 4G signal at the starting point (La Cumbre) and at the end in Coroico. However, on the winding, 60km gravel road itself, which is deep in a mountainous jungle canyon, you must expect the signal to be intermittent or non-existent. Download offline maps before you start the bike ride.
No! This is a major advantage. Buying a physical local SIM card in La Paz requires you to find a kiosk, use (often limited) Spanish, and go through a mandatory passport and ID registration process. Our eSIM is 100% digital, requires no ID registration, and can be installed before you fly, so you are connected the moment you land.
Most modern phones do, but you must check our specific list here: eSIM Compatible Devices to be 100% sure before purchasing.
Yes. Uber and Yango operate in La Paz and Santa Cruz, and using them via data is much safer than hailing street taxis in Bolivia.
Coverage is available in the town of Rurrenabaque, but expect to be offline once you enter deep jungle lodges in Madidi National Park.
Yes. You will have excellent 4G signal in Sucre (the White City) and Potosi, allowing you to share photos of the colonial architecture instantly.
Signal is generally available in the main village of Yumani on Isla del Sol, but it can be spotty on hiking trails across the island in Lake Titicaca.
