eSIM vs Local SIM in Prague
For Kiwi travellers, a HelloRoam eSIM is generally cheaper than buying a local SIM on arrival or using an international add-on from a New Zealand carrier.
| Category | HelloRoam Recommended | Czech local SIM (T-Mobile/O2/Vodafone) | Telco roaming |
|---|---|---|---|
| Typical cost | From NZ$4.02 total | — | — |
| Details | Buy before you leave home. Activate at home with a QR code. 5G active on landing at PRG Airport. Fixed pricing in NZD. If you day-trip to Vienna or Berlin, check if a multi-country EU plan suits your itinerary better. | Czech prepaid SIMs are sold at PRG Airport, Alza shops, and telecom stores in the city. No passport registration is required for Czech prepaid. Good value for longer stays but requires in-person setup on arrival. | NZ carrier day passes for the Czech Republic charge you for each day you use them. A week in Prague on roaming adds up fast.

On a trip to Europe, my hotel Wi-Fi was so slow and outside Wi-Fi was unreliable. I couldn’t take it anymore so I got helloroam for a few days. It was tricky to set up correctly because of the primary settings (with my original number). But I reached out to their customer service via WhatsApp. Super responsive and helpful, with specific and clear steps to troubleshoot. Appreciate having 4G roaming instead of being stuck with in and out Wi-Fi during my trip!!
Rated 5 out of 5 by this reviewer
Very good experience! The eSIM was easy to set up and worked great in London. It was much cheaper than it would have been to use my own operator there.
