Ubigi eSIM Plans for Egypt
What you get with Ubigi in Egypt
Which Ubigi plan should you pick?
For a short city break of 3–5 days, the cheapest plan at £4.00 will cover Maps, WhatsApp, and casual browsing. If you're spending one to two weeks travelling around Egypt, step up to a mid-tier plan — usually the strongest value option on a per-GB basis in Ubigi's Egypt lineup.
If you plan to work remotely, stream video daily, or use your phone as a hotspot for a laptop, lean towards a larger bundle — the 25 GB option is the safer choice. The unlimited plans are priced at a premium but make sense for heavy users who don't want to track usage.
One thing to note: Ubigi Egypt plans are data-only. You won't get a local number, but your existing SIM handles calls and texts as normal. iMessage, WhatsApp, and FaceTime all work over data.

Ubigi eSIM for Egypt 2026 — what you need to know
Ubigi is a well-regarded eSIM provider with solid Egypt coverage. Plans range from short-break options to longer-stay packages, making Ubigi a flexible choice whether you're spending a long weekend or travelling for a month.
Egypt has four operators: Orange Egypt, Vodafone Egypt (the biggest), Etisalat Misr and WE (Telecom Egypt). All four have 4G across Cairo, Alexandria, Hurghada, Sharm el-Sheikh, Luxor and Aswan. 5G has been launched commercially in 2024 across the main cities, with Vodafone, Orange and WE all rolling out networks. The Pyramids of Giza, Saqqara and Dahshur are all well covered. The Valley of the Kings near Luxor has signal at the visitor centre. Nile cruises between Luxor and Aswan get coverage at every major stop and along most of the river. The Western Desert oases like Siwa and Bahariya have signal in the towns but drop out fast on desert tours.
Is Ubigi good in Egypt?
In our testing, Ubigi connected reliably across major cities and travel routes in Egypt. Plug is type C/F (220V) and the currency is the Egyptian pound. Tipping (baksheesh) is expected for absolutely everything, keep small notes handy. Bottled water only, the tap is not safe for visitors.
