Questions about Guatemala
Does this eSIM work at Tikal ruins?
Yes. The Tikal visitor centre, Great Plaza, and main temple complexes (Temple I, Temple II, Temple IV) have 4G. Deep jungle trails between minor temples lose signal.
Is there coverage at Lake Atitlán?
Yes. Panajachel, San Pedro, Santiago Atitlán, and other lakeside villages all have 4G. Boat routes across the lake maintain 4G from multiple shore towers.
Does the eSIM work in Antigua Guatemala?
Yes. Antigua's historic centre, Arco de Santa Catalina, and the viewpoints of Cerro de la Cruz have excellent 4G.
What currency does Guatemala use?
Guatemalan quetzal (GTQ). USD is accepted in some tourist areas and hotels. ATMs in Guatemala City and Antigua dispense quetzales.
Is there coverage at Semuc Champey?
Limited. Lanquín town (the nearest settlement) has 4G. The road to Semuc Champey has 3G/4G. At the pools themselves, signal is weak but usually present.
What is an eSIM?
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM built into your phone. Instead of a physical card, you scan a QR code and your plan installs instantly — no SIM tray needed.
Is my phone eSIM-compatible?
iPhone XS (2018) and newer, most Android flagships from 2020+, and all Samsung Galaxy S21+ devices support eSIM. Check our compatibility page for the full device list.
How do I install the eSIM?
After purchase, we email a QR code. On iPhone: Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM → Scan QR Code. On Android: Settings → Network & Internet → SIMs → Add eSIM. The whole process takes under 60 seconds.
Can I keep my regular SIM while using this eSIM?
Yes. Most phones support dual SIM (physical + eSIM). Keep your home number for calls and SMS — use Flysimio for data abroad. You control which SIM handles what in your phone Settings.
Does the eSIM include a hotspot (tethering)?
Yes, all Flysimio plans include mobile hotspot at no extra charge. Share your data connection with laptops, tablets, or other devices freely.
What happens when my data runs out?
You can top up data from your account dashboard at any time. Top-ups are applied instantly — no need to buy a new eSIM or wait.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. We offer a full refund within 7 days of purchase. Contact contact@flysimio.com with your order number.
How long is the eSIM valid for?
You have 6 months from your purchase date to activate the eSIM. Once activated, the plan validity period (e.g., 7 days, 30 days) begins counting down.
Will the eSIM work at the airport when I land?
Yes — as long as you installed the eSIM before your flight, it activates automatically when your phone connects to a local network on landing. No Wi-Fi required for activation.
What if the QR code doesn't scan?
If the QR code won't scan, you can enter the activation code manually — we include both in the email. You can also contact our 24/7 support team and we'll resend or manually provision your eSIM.
