eSIM Travel Tips for France
Paris is a dream destination for Singaporeans: sort your eSIM at home
Paris is one of the most popular European cities for Singapore travellers. From Changi, Singapore Airlines and Air France fly direct to Paris CDG. Set up your HelloRoam eSIM the night before departure. Enable data on landing at CDG and Google Maps, the RATP Metro app, and Google Translate work immediately.
Paris Metro and RER: Citymapper is the best navigation app
Paris has an excellent Metro and RER network. Citymapper handles Paris transit beautifully and is far better than Google Maps for Metro navigation. The RATP app is also useful for real-time train times. Your HelloRoam eSIM keeps both apps running from CDG Terminal 2E into the city.
French Riviera: Nice, Cannes, and Monaco
Nice, Cannes, and Monaco (the French Riviera) are popular with Singapore travellers for the Mediterranean lifestyle and beaches. Strong 4G and 5G throughout the Riviera coast. Nice Côte d'Azur Airport connections from Paris are easy with your HelloRoam eSIM active throughout.
Wine country: Bordeaux and Burgundy

Mobile networks in France: what Singapore visitors need to know
HelloRoam connects on Orange in France. Orange is France's largest national operator with 5G in Paris and major cities and strong 4G across the country including rural wine regions and coastal areas. Very remote rural areas may have limited signal.
