Traveller's guide

Staying connected in Dar es Salaam

A weak connection does not just feel slow — it wastes your plan. Pages half-load and reload, uploads restart, apps retry in the background. Sitting on a solid network is part of what makes a fixed plan last the whole trip.

In Dar es Salaam the biggest single draw is the ferry and safari transfers, which are the reason most visitors are there at all. Download the offline map before you fly and let the eSIM handle live traffic only.

Dar es Salaam is the mainland gateway to Zanzibar and the southern parks, and both are reached by transfers arranged at short notice by message.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Will the Dar es Salaam eSIM work on my phone?

Any eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked handset — iPhone XS and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, Pixel 3 and newer. Dial *#06#; an EID number means yes.

How fast is the data in Dar es Salaam?

4G and 5G where the local network provides it. Speed varies by area and time of day, as it does for everyone on the same network.

Do I need a passport or registration?

No. That requirement applies to physical SIM cards bought locally, not to this eSIM.

When does my plan start?

On the first connection to a local network — when you switch off flight mode at DAR. Not when you pay.

What happens when my data runs out?

Your connection simply pauses — no surprise bills, ever. To keep going, buy another package for the same destination. If that happens often, the unlimited plan is the cheaper answer.

Can I add data to an eSIM I already have?

No — we don't offer top-ups. If you need more data, buy another package for the same destination. It arrives by email and installs alongside the eSIM you already have.

Can I keep my normal number for calls and texts?

Yes. Keep the home line active for SMS codes with its data off, and let the eSIM carry the data.

Can I use it as a mobile hotspot in Dar es Salaam?

Yes. Bear in mind a second device draws from the same plan.

Does it work outside Dar es Salaam?

Yes — it is a Tanzania-wide plan.

Staying longer than a week?

Unlimited is billed per day and the daily rate falls the longer you stay — same networks, no counting.
