Activate a plan in two minutes, scan the QR code, and you're online for Uber / Cabify rides in Lima, Ollantaytambo train-station scheduling, Machu Picchu ticket-scan backups, or Rainbow Mountain altitude-acclimatization logs. Choose a 7-day plan for a Cusco + Machu Picchu + Sacred Valley weekend, a 30-day plan for a full Peru circuit including Lima, Cusco, Arequipa, Colca Canyon and Puno, or Peru eSIM unlimited data for longer Lima-based digital-nomad or archaeological-research stays.

Peru eSIM FAQ β Lima/Cusco/Machu Picchu Coverage, Claro Peru & Sacred Valley Travel
Which is the best eSIM for Peru?
The best eSIM for Peru depends on your route β a 7-day plan fits a Cusco + Sacred Valley + Machu Picchu weekend, a 30-day plan covers a full Peru circuit including Lima, Cusco, Arequipa, Colca Canyon, Puno and Lake Titicaca, and Peru eSIM unlimited data is ideal for longer Lima-based digital-nomad or archaeological-research stays. Our Peru eSIMs run on Claro Peru and Movistar Peru, with dense 4G/5G in Lima, Cusco and Arequipa, and reliable 4G along the CuscoβOllantaytamboβMachu Picchu train corridor.
Does a Peru eSIM work at Machu Picchu and on the Inca Trail?
At Machu Picchu itself: yes β Aguas Calientes (the gateway village) and the citadel area have 4G on Claro Peru and Movistar Peru. On the classic 4-day Inca Trail: no β there is no mobile signal along the trek itself, which is part of the adventure. Download offline maps before starting, and use the eSIM for train-station check-ins at Ollantaytambo and for reaching your Cusco hotel once you return via the Piscacucho end-point.
Is a prepaid Peru eSIM card available for travelers?
Yes β a prepaid Peru eSIM card (esim peru card) arrives as a QR code within minutes of online purchase. Install it on your iPhone, Pixel or Samsung before flying, and activate on arrival at Lima Jorge ChΓ‘vez (LIM) or Cusco (CUZ). No Claro Peru shop visit, no DNI / tourist-form paperwork, and your home SIM stays live for OTP codes from bank and booking apps while the eSIM handles Peruvian data on the Sacred Valley route.
