On the eve of the New Year holidays, the founder of Unisimka told how you can save on communications abroad.
According to the expert's observations, only about half of tourists prefer to use hotel Wi-Fi.
In an interview with RIA Novosti, Anna Kashnitskaya spoke about the methods of communication popular among Russians abroad.
For example, in Turkey, tourists are offered international travel eSIMs. They are issued in Telegram bots, and unlimited Internet on them will cost about 200 rubles.
The convenience is that you can top up such SIM cards using Russian bank cards.
As for Cuba, the expert advised tourists visiting the island to connect a travel SIM. 1 GB of Internet will cost from 200 to 1200 rubles.
It is noted that Russian tourists in the UAE are given a free SIM card from the local operator DU. It already has 1 GB of Internet, but it can only be used within 24 hours after activation.
In Egypt, 1 GB of Internet will cost about 1 thousand rubles, and in Bali, tourist SIM cards are often much cheaper than the services of local tour operators: for 1 GB of Internet here, on average, you will have to pay about 200 rubles.
For reference
Roaming is a procedure for providing services (cellular communications, Wi-Fi) to a subscriber outside the service area of the subscriber’s “home” network using the resources of the local network.
