Reserve your spot on the French Guiana Data eSIM from 0.5GB daily to 20GB 30 Days today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Verify device compatibility
Check your phone is eSIM-capable and unlocked before purchase; many China/Hong Kong models lack eSIM support.
Test activation in town
Install and test the eSIM in Cayenne where signal is strong to confirm the profile and speeds before leaving for remote areas.
Bring a power bank
Long days in the field drain phones fast—carry a charged power bank to keep navigation and emergency contacts online.
Download offline maps
Save offline maps and key documents; throttled data at 128 kbps is enough for messaging but too slow for heavy map tiles.
eSIM-capable unlocked smartphone
Required to install the profile and use data; device must support eSIM and be unlocked.
Portable power bank
Keeps your device powered during long trips into areas with limited charging options.
Local physical SIM (backup)
A prepaid physical SIM can be a fallback if eSIM compatibility issues arise.
Offline maps and downloaded guides
Useful when you enter zones with weak signal or after high-speed allowance is exhausted.
