An eSIM is a digital profile installed directly on your device; you don’t need a physical SIM card.

With TurTrip, buy your eSIM for Peru online, install it on your phone, and get connected without a physical SIM card.

Once activated, your eSIM automatically connects to the local networks operated by Movistar Peru, Claro Peru and ENTEL Peru, so you can use internet in Peru throughout your trip, without roaming charges or hassle.

Mobile coverage in Peru is very good in the main cities and tourist areas such as Lima, Cusco, Arequipa, Trujillo or Piura. The connection is made via leading local networks in Peru such as Movistar Peru, Claro Peru and Entel Peru, providing a stable connection for most of your trip.

In rural areas, mountainous regions, or on long road journeys, particularly in Andean or jungle regions, speeds can vary from time to time.

No. All TurTrip plans for Peru are data-only. To make calls over the internet, you can use apps that work with your connection.

The validity period of your eSIM for Peru depends on the plan you choose, such as 7, 15 or 30 days. The validity period starts when you set up or activate your eSIM in Peru, not on the date of purchase.

Keep in mind that all TurTrip eSIMs also have a validity period of 6 months. If you don’t use it within that period, your eSIM will automatically expire after 6 months from activation or last use, even if you haven’t used up your data plan.

All unlimited data eSIMs for Peru include unlimited data throughout your trip, so you can explore without worrying about losing your connection. Here’s how it works: you get 1 GB per day at maximum speed, ideal for smooth browsing.

Once you’ve used your daily 1 GB of high-speed data, your service stays active. Your speed is reduced to 1.25 Mbps, so you can still use WhatsApp, Google Maps and social media, check bookings, find restaurants, or read your email. You stay connected even after using your daily high-speed allowance.

Your 1 GB of high-speed data resets automatically every 24 hours. There’s nothing you need to do: each day of your trip, you get a fresh high-speed allowance to use your phone as usual.

The eSIM for Peru offers speeds of 3G, 4G, LTE and 5G, depending on local coverage and your location. In cities and urban areas, speeds are generally fast enough for maps, social media, messaging, and online work.

In less populated or rural areas, or on long journeys, speeds may be lower. A stable connection takes priority over maximum speed so you can keep browsing and using essential services.

Yes. For your eSIM to work properly in Peru, keep data roaming turned on in your phone’s settings. There’s no extra charge: you’re using the local network linked to your TurTrip eSIM, rather than roaming with your regular carrier.

If data roaming is off, your device may not connect to the network even if your eSIM is installed correctly. Turn it on before using data and keep it on throughout your trip to Peru to avoid interruptions.

Yes. You can share your TurTrip eSIM’s data connection with other devices using tethering or a mobile hotspot, such as a laptop, tablet, or another phone, as long as your device supports it.

Shared data comes out of your plan, just as it does when you browse on your phone. Video calls, browsing on a computer, and downloads can use data faster.

We recommend using your hotspot when needed and checking your usage in your TurTrip account. If you need more data during your trip, you can easily top up your plan at any time.

If your eSIM doesn’t connect when you arrive in Peru, don’t worry: a few simple steps usually fix it. First, make sure your TurTrip eSIM is selected as the main line for mobile data in your device’s settings and that data roaming is turned on.

If you don’t connect right away, restart your phone or switch airplane mode on for a few seconds, then off, to restart the network search. Also check that a data limit or power-saving mode isn’t blocking your connection.

These steps usually resolve the issue in a few minutes. If you’re still offline, contact our support team and we’ll help you get connected as soon as possible.

Yes, and we recommend it. You can install your eSIM for Peru before traveling, while you have Wi-Fi and time to do it at your own pace. When you arrive in Peru, just turn on mobile data and data roaming to get online right away.

Installing the eSIM in advance doesn’t use data or start your plan’s validity period. The eSIM will only activate when it detects a local network in Peru. Installing it in advance means you won’t have to rely on airport Wi-Fi and can get online from the start of your trip to Peru.

Yes, your TurTrip eSIM works in Peru, from Lima and Cusco to the Amazon and the south of the country, as long as there is mobile coverage in the area. In cities, main towns, and tourist destinations, the connection is usually stable and suitable for browsing, maps, and messaging apps.

Please note that Peru is a very extensive country with sparsely populated areas. In remote regions, such as the Peruvian Amazon, the highlands, or on long routes, coverage may be more limited, or speeds may be lower. This is normal and depends on your location, not your eSIM.

For travel in remote areas, we recommend downloading offline maps and planning your data usage, especially for long journeys or trips through sparsely populated areas.

Yes. The TurTrip eSIM for Peru works with apps for online banking, payments, transportation, and other local services that need an internet connection.

You can use banking apps, Google Maps, Uber, Cabify and booking services, as well as public transit apps, WhatsApp and other everyday platforms during your trip to Peru. With a data-only eSIM, these apps work just as they do with a regular mobile connection.

Some apps may require SMS verification. You’ll receive the code on your regular number if you keep your physical SIM active. That’s why many travelers use their TurTrip eSIM for data and keep their regular SIM for important calls or messages, with secure, reliable internet in Peru.

Yes. You can buy your eSIM for Peru even once already in the country, as long as you have internet access to complete your purchase and installation, such as Wi-Fi at your hotel, a café or the airport.

Delivery is instant, and you can install your eSIM on your phone in minutes. Then just turn on mobile data and data roaming to start browsing, without visiting a store or buying a local physical SIM.

Buying your eSIM for Peru online saves time and avoids lines, helping you get connected wherever you are, from Lima to Cusco, Arequipa or Machu Picchu, with reliable internet throughout your trip.
