The best eSIM for Mexico
From the resorts of Cancún to bustling Mexico City, coverage in Mexico is generally good in tourist and urban areas, but drops off in rural regions. An eSIM skips the registration step that comes with a local SIM.
Practical tips
- Telcel has the widest coverage, including in smaller towns outside the tourist zones
- In the Riviera Maya (Cancún, Tulum, Playa del Carmen) coverage is excellent, in rural parts of Chiapas or Oaxaca less so
- Buying a local SIM usually requires registering with Mexican ID, an eSIM skips that step
