DataESIM plans are precisely configured for specific geographical regions to optimize performance and cost. This particular DataESIM plan is strictly valid for usage within Uganda only. For power users with multi-country itineraries, it is crucial to understand that crossing into adjacent nations such as Rwanda (e.g., for Volcanoes National Park), Kenya (e.g., Masai Mara safaris), or Tanzania will result in a loss of connectivity. We recommend purchasing a dedicated regional DataESIM plan for seamless, uninterrupted service across multiple East African destinations.
