Nepal means the Himalayas: Kathmandu with its temples and bazaars, then the Annapurna and Everest trekking routes. A working phone lets you plan each stage, share your photos and stay safe on the trail. A Simpartout eSIM joins local networks such as Ncell and Nepal Telecom (NTC) when you land, so there is no hunting for a local SIM and no hefty roaming bill. Add the QR code before departure.

What does an eSIM add to a trip to Nepal?
French roaming in Nepal is costly. An eSIM sets a fixed price for data, suited to Kathmandu, Pokhara and travel to the trekking regions. Be aware that the signal can weaken at high altitude and in remote valleys. Your French SIM stays active for calls.
