eSIM Travel Tips for Tanzania

Set up your eSIM before leaving Toronto
Buy your HelloRoam plan for Tanzania at home, scan the QR code in your phone settings, and enable data when you land. You skip the counter queues at Dodoma airport and arrive connected. Rogers, Bell, or Telus international data charges add up fast on a East Africa trip.
Keep your Canadian number reachable
Dual SIM phones let you keep your Rogers, Bell, or Telus SIM active for calls and texts while using HelloRoam for data in Tanzania. Family back in Canada can still reach you on your regular number. Use HelloRoam as your default data line to keep your costs down.
Download offline maps before you travel
Google Maps and Maps.me offline maps work anywhere in Tanzania, even in areas with weaker signal. Download the Tanzania map over Wi-Fi at home in Canada before you depart. Rural areas and smaller towns may have slower data speeds than Dodoma.
Monitor your data with the HelloRoam app
The HelloRoam app shows live data usage with alerts at 80% and 95% of your plan. Top up directly inside the app if you need more data without reinstalling your eSIM profile.
Currency and payments in Tanzania
Let your bank know you are travelling to Tanzania before departure. Most hotels and larger retailers in Dodoma accept Visa and Mastercard. Carry some local currency for smaller vendors and transportation. Your HelloRoam eSIM keeps banking apps and currency converters running throughout the trip.
