Using an eSIM in Israel
Israel's main mobile networks include Partner, Cellcom, Pelephone and HOT Mobile. Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa and the coastal cities are well covered for maps, ride apps and messaging.
Outside the cities, the Negev desert, the Dead Sea basin and some stretches of the Galilee and Golan can have weaker signal. Download offline maps if you plan to drive or hike between sights.
Good to know
- Waze, which was developed in Israel, is widely used for driving directions and needs a live data connection for current traffic. Use a separate transit planner for public transport.
- Gett and Yango are among the taxi and ride apps people use, and WhatsApp is the everyday messaging app.
- Check which areas the package covers if your trip includes places across a border or regional boundaries, since coverage depends on the plan.
Israel eSIM questions
- Will my eSIM work in the Negev and at the Dead Sea?
- Towns such as Eilat, Be'er Sheva and the Dead Sea resorts are generally served, but desert roads and canyon trails can lose signal. Save offline maps and your bookings before leaving town.
- Do I need data to use public transport in Israel?
- Route planners such as Moovit and Google Maps work best with a live connection, and bus and train timetables change with the day of the week. Data on travel days saves you from hunting for Wi-Fi.
- Can I use Waze and ride apps with just a data eSIM?
- Yes, Waze and most ride apps run over mobile data. Set up payment methods before you arrive, and keep your usual SIM for calls to your own number.
