Saily is an eSIM app built by Nord Security, the company behind NordVPN. Instead of hunting for a SIM card at the airport or paying your carrier's roaming fees, you buy a data plan for your destination, install it from the app and you're online as soon as you land. No counter, no queue, no tiny card to handle: everything is set up from your phone before you even leave. It's a small comfort that makes a big difference on the ground, whether you're finding your way, translating a menu or meeting us at the starting point.
ℹ️ Practical information & Services
📱 Type of service: travel eSIM, data plans by destination (no local phone number).
✅ Compatibility: eSIM-compatible, unlocked phone (most recent models are).
⏱️ Setup: installed in a few minutes from the app, ideally before you leave and on wifi.
📶 Your usual number: your regular SIM stays in place, so you remain reachable while the eSIM handles data.
How it works:
1. Choose: pick your destination and data plan in the Saily app.
2. Install: add the eSIM to your phone before departure, following the steps in the app.
3. Activate: when you arrive, switch on the data line and get online without looking for wifi.
🧭 Why it helps during a visit
Finding your way: Google Maps and transit info stay at your fingertips, even in backstreets and quieter neighborhoods.
Staying in touch: WhatsApp and internet calls work as usual, handy for meeting us on the day of the tour.
Understanding: instant translation of a menu, a sign or a conversation.
What we like about this service: It's very practical in Japan: Saily uses the networks of the major local carriers, so there's no pocket wifi to carry around and recharge. And you can use it right as you step off the plane. It's the kind of detail that makes a stay easier, which is why we recommend it.
