Trip Essentials
Data is the easy part. Trip Essentials is everything else you need in the first hour after you land: how to say it, how to get there, what the weather is doing, and which taxi app people actually use. Hand-built for 61 destinations so far, and free with every plan for the ones we cover.
What is in the kit
Researched per country by a person, not scraped. If a destination is covered, all of this is waiting the moment your eSIM is yours.
Audio phrasebook
1,350 phrases across 41 languages, 1,350 of them spoken aloud so you can hear the pronunciation rather than guess at it. Covers 54 destinations.
Offline map shortcuts
1,807 landmarks and 365 transit systems, each a one-tap link to save in Google Maps before you fly. Works with no signal, which is exactly when you need it.
Arrival day notes
167 airports with the practical things nobody tells you: the emergency number, the plug type, and how to get from the terminal into town without being overcharged.
Live weather
A real forecast for 61 destination cities, so you pack for the weather that is actually happening rather than the season you imagined.
The right ride-hail app
Uber is not the answer everywhere. We list the 23 apps that locals actually use across 31 countries, so you install the right one before you are stood outside arrivals.
A trip you can plan
Create a free account and Trip Essentials becomes an editable itinerary: save where you are staying, add the stops you want, and tick them off as you go.
How you get it
Buy an eSIM for a covered destination
Any plan for that country counts, from the smallest to the largest. Nothing to add at checkout, no upgrade, no extra cost.
Open the link in your eSIM email
That link opens your eSIM page, and Trip Essentials sits right on it. No account needed if you checked out as a guest.
Save what you need before you fly
Play the phrases, save the maps offline, check the plug type. Then land, switch on your data, and go.
Is your destination covered?
Trip Essentials is built country by country, so it is honest about where it exists. 61 destinations are live today, and the list is still growing. Check yours before you buy rather than after.

Does Trip Essentials cost extra?
No. Trip Essentials is built country by country, so it is not everywhere yet. Where a destination is covered, every plan for it includes the kit free: nothing to add at checkout, no upgrade, no extra cost.
Do I need an account to use it?
No. If you checked out as a guest, open the link in your eSIM email and Trip Essentials is right there. Creating a free account adds a saved itinerary you can edit and tick off as you travel.
Which destinations have it?
Trip Essentials is hand-built per destination and currently covers 61 countries. You can check yours on the coverage page before you buy.
Does the phrasebook work offline?
The audio streams, so play the phrases you want while you still have data. The offline-map shortcuts are designed to be saved in Google Maps before you fly, so they work with no signal at all.
