Staying connected in Vietnam is easy:

​

1. Use an eSIM

• The easiest option! Download an eSIM before you leave using apps like Airalo or Holafly, and activate it as soon as you land.

• Great for instant data without swapping SIM cards.

​

2. Buy a Local SIM Card

• If your phone is unlocked, pick one up at Da Nang International Airport right after customs.

• Carriers like Viettel, Mobifone, and Vinaphone are reliable and affordable.

​

3. Use International Roaming

• Check with your carrier before you travel. Some offer daily roaming passes, but this is usually more expensive.

​

4. Wi-Fi

• Hotels, restaurants, and cafés almost always have free Wi-Fi, and it’s generally reliable in Da Nang and Hoi An.

​

Tip: We recommend an eSIM for ease or a local SIM if you’ll be in Vietnam for longer.
