Planning a trip to Albania and looking for the best eSIM to stay connected? In this guide I compare the best eSIMs for Albania in 2026, including prices, data plans, validity, mobile networks and my personal recommendation.

On my recent trip to Albania I also checked the prices for buying a SIM card at Tirana Airport, and honestly, local prepaid SIM cards for tourists are not super cheap. That makes ordering an eSIM for Albania online even more interesting, especially if you only need mobile data and want to be connected as soon as you arrive.

For most travelers, an eSIM is the easiest way to get mobile data in Albania. You order your eSIM online, install it before your trip and you are connected as soon as the plane lands in Tirana. No waiting at a SIM card shop, no passport registration and no expensive international roaming charges.

Planning your trip to the FIFA World Cup 2026 and looking for the best eSIM for the FIFA World Cup 2026? This is a complete guide with everything you need to know about using an eSIM for traveling in the USA, Canada and Mexico during the World Cup including a comparison of the best eSIMs, network coverage, data plans, prices and real travel tips.

The FIFA World Cup 2026 will be hosted across 3 countries and 16 host cities in North America including New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Dallas, Toronto, Vancouver, Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey.

That means many football fans will not just stay in one place, but travel between cities, stadiums and even countries. Whether you are ordering an Uber after the match, navigating public transport, looking for restaurants or updating your social media live from the stadium, having reliable mobile data on your phone will be essential.

If you’re traveling to multiple countries and don’t want to deal with buying a new SIM card in every destination, an international SIM card or global eSIM can be a great solution.

I’ve been a full-time traveler since 2012 and have tested prepaid SIM cards and eSIMs in 170 countries. For this guide, I compared the best international SIM cards and global eSIMs for traveling in 2026, looking at coverage, data packages, pricing in USD, ease of activation, and overall value for money.

Planning a trip to Canada in 2026 and wondering what is the best prepaid SIM card to stay connected? You are not alone. Getting mobile data in Canada can be surprisingly confusing and, compared to many other countries, also quite expensive.

Normally I would say: just buy a local prepaid SIM card at the airport or in a phone shop and you are good to go. But Canada is different. Some of the biggest mobile operators like Bell and Rogers don’t even properly offer prepaid SIM cards for tourists anymore and instead redirect you to smaller sub-brands with different networks, speeds and pricing structures.

On top of that, prepaid SIM card plans in Canada are not cheap. In fact, Canada is known for having some of the highest mobile data prices in the world. So before you blindly buy a SIM card on arrival, it is worth understanding how the system works and what your best option really is.

Planning your trip to the USA in 2026 and wondering what is the best prepaid SIM card? Staying connected in the United States can be expensive compared to what you are used to when traveling in Europe or Asia.

From road trips through the Midwest, California and Arizona, snowboarding in Colorado and Utah to exploring cities like New York, Miami and Chicago, I have tested pretty much every way of staying connected in the US.

Here is the truth: buying a prepaid SIM card in the USA is not as straightforward as you might think.

Flying to Istanbul Airport (IST) and wondering if you should buy a prepaid SIM card on arrival? You can, but in 2026 I do not recommend buying a SIM card at Istanbul Airport. Tourist SIM card prices at IST are shockingly expensive and there are much cheaper ways to stay connected in Turkey.

The cheapest prepaid SIM card I found at Istanbul Airport starts at around 1,935 TL (~$42 USD), which is honestly ridiculous. Even buying a local prepaid SIM card in Istanbul city center is usually cheaper than at the airport, but in 2026 the cheapest SIM card for tourists in Turkey is actually an eSIM.

At Traveltomtom we recently came across Firsty, an originally Dutch eSIM company with a pretty bold idea: making mobile data abroad easier, more flexible and even available for free.

As you probably know by now, I am always curious about new eSIM providers, especially when they claim to do things differently. Firsty is not just another travel eSIM company selling country-specific data plans. Instead, Firsty works through one global eSIM and gives travelers the option to use basic mobile data for free, or upgrade to paid Daily and Monthly plans when they need more speed and convenience.

That immediately sounded interesting to me, so I ordered a Firsty eSIM, downloaded the app and tested how it works. In this honest Firsty eSIM review I will explain how Firsty Free works, what you can realistically do with the free data, what the paid Daily and Monthly plans are about and whether Firsty is actually worth using when traveling abroad.
