Avoid the "Tourist Trap" SIMs at CDG Airport
Buying a SIM card at the Relay shops in Charles de Gaulle (CDG) or Orly is expensive (often €40+). Plus, the public WiFi at the airport is often slow. With an Ovosim eSIM, you are connected the second your plane lands, ready to book your Uber or check the RER B train schedule.
RER & Metro Ready
Don't get lost underground. Our eSIMs connect to 5G/4G in Paris Metro stations so you can use Citymapper live.
Insta-Ready Speeds
Upload 4K video Stories from the Eiffel Tower or the Louvre without waiting for hotel WiFi.
Cost of a Coffee
A 5GB data plan costs less than a coffee and croissant at Café de Flore. Stay connected for cheap.
