Why eSIM here, not a local SIM
Italian SIMs require passport registration in person — and operators have closed several tourist-friendly options in recent years.
Free Wi-Fi: Common. Coverage is excellent in cities and Mediterranean coastal areas; mountainous regions and small Sardinian/Sicilian villages can drop to 4G or weaker.

Common questions about Italy
When does my plan's validity start in Italy?
Validity starts when your eSIM first connects to a local Italy network, that's usually as soon as you land and switch off airplane mode. Installing the eSIM at home days before your trip doesn't burn any days.
Can I use my phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot in Italy?
Yes, all Esim70 plans support tethering by default with no separate daily cap. Your phone can share its data connection with a laptop, tablet, or travel companion's phone.
Will my home number still work in Italy?
Yes, modern phones support dual-SIM. Your home SIM stays active for calls and SMS while the Esim70 eSIM handles data abroad. You can keep WhatsApp / iMessage tied to your home number too.
