About this eSIM

Mountains meet the sea in Vancouver, and your connection spans the city and the rest of Canada from touchdown. Cycle the Stanley Park seawall, cross the Capilano Suspension Bridge, browse historic Gastown or take the SkyTrain in from the airport. Coverage stays strong on fast, reliable 5G across downtown and out to the North Shore. Everything's live within seconds, so your Compass Card top-ups, trail directions and coffee-shop hunting all work from the moment you step off the plane.

Vancouver keeps you well connected across downtown, around Gastown, Yaletown and the seawall through Stanley Park, and over into Kitsilano. It can weaken on the tunnelled downtown SkyTrain sections and thin fast up toward Grouse Mountain and the North Shore trails. Load the eSIM and let it activate when you land so you are online leaving the airport, and keep your home number on for calls. Tip: if you are hiking the North Shore, grab an offline trail map in town first.

I used Viasimo to travel home to California this year. The instructions were super easy to follow and I had no problems with the service for the whole 20 days that I used it. It was nice not to worry about

Landed in Tokyo, switched off flight mode and I was online before I reached passport control. No SIM-card queues, no surprise bill afterwards.

Viasimo is the easiest way to stay connected abroad: installed in minutes, working the moment you land, for a fraction of what roaming costs.
