TRAVEL TIPS

_____

Travel is more than reaching a destination — it's about arriving prepared, so you can fully immerse yourself in the experience awaiting you. Below, you'll find useful links to help you choose an eSIM to stay connected throughout your African adventure, as well as guidance on selecting the right travel insurance for your journey.

If you book a trip, our team will make sure to provide you with local tips — practical advice, cultural insights, and insider recommendations — crafted to help you feel at ease from the moment you land.

TRAVEL INSURANCE

________

A well-organized trip isn't just about choosing the right destination — it's also about the peace of mind that comes from knowing you're protected, whatever happens. An unexpected event — a cancelled flight, lost luggage, a health issue far from home — can happen to anyone, and it's in those moments that the right travel insurance makes all the difference between a minor setback and a real ordeal. That's why we recommend never setting off without coverage tailored to your journey.

For your African adventure, we recommend Chapka Travel insurance, a trusted partner offering comprehensive, flexible solutions suited to travelers heading to destinations like these. Click the link below to explore the available options and choose the coverage that's right for you.

Keep in mind that most of travel insurances have to be bought before the flight (or the same day) to be valid.

ESIM

________

Staying connected while traveling in Africa is easier than ever thanks to eSIM technology. An eSIM is a digital SIM card built directly into your phone — no physical card to insert, no need to hunt for a local shop on arrival. With just a QR code scan, you can activate a local data plan before you even leave home, giving you internet access from the moment you land: for maps, translations, sharing photos, or staying in touch with family.

Below, you'll find our recommended eSIM partners, organized by country, so you can quickly choose the right plan for your destination and travel with total peace of mind.

For Tanzania and Mauritius, we recommend GoMoWorld.

For Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Seychelles, and Morocco, we recommend GlobaleSIM.

GoMoWorld works as an app-based system: you install the app once on your phone, and after that, every time you travel somewhere new you simply pick your destination and data plan from within the app rather than installing a new eSIM profile each time. The eSIM itself only needs to be installed a single time — the app then manages activation for whichever country or plan you buy afterward, so switching destinations is just a few taps rather than a new setup process. This makes it especially convenient for people who travel often to different places, since there's no repeated installation step, and your regular SIM stays active for calls and texts the whole time while the app handles data.

GlobaleSIM works in a more traditional way: each plan you buy comes with its own QR code sent by email, which you scan through your phone's cellular settings to install that specific eSIM profile. So if you buy a new plan for a different country or trip, you'll generally be scanning a new QR code and going through the installation steps again rather than just selecting something inside an app. It's a very standard, widely-used method that works reliably across most eSIM-compatible phones. Your main SIM keeps working for calls and messages while the eSIM handles data only.
