Frequently Asked Questions

Greece eSIM

Greece has solid 4G/LTE coverage on the mainland and on the bigger islands like Crete, Rhodes, Corfu and Mykonos. On smaller and more remote islands coverage can be weaker or limited to 3G. In Athens, Thessaloniki and tourist centres you’ll have no issues at all.
After purchase you’ll get a QR code by email. Go to your phone settings, tap ‘Add eSIM’ and scan the code. Done in two minutes. Set it up at home — so you’re already connected when you land in Athens or step off the ferry on a Greek island.
Athens has the Athens International Airport ‘Eleftherios Venizelos’ (ATH), which handles most international flights. Thessaloniki has ‘Macedonia’ Airport (SKG) for northern Greece. Other key airports include Heraklion (HER) on Crete, Rhodes (RHO), Corfu (CFU), Mykonos (JMK) and Santorini (JTR).
Cards are well accepted in hotels, larger restaurants and city shops. In small tavernas, island markets and more remote spots cash is still common. On the islands it’s worth withdrawing cash on arrival since ATMs can occasionally run dry or be out of service, especially in peak season.
The sweet spot for the islands is May–June and September–October — the sea is warm, prices are more reasonable and far fewer crowds than July–August. July and August are peak season with scorching heat, packed islands and prices at their highest. Athens is great to visit year-round and even in winter the weather is mild.
The Airlivo Greece eSIM connects to a major Greek network such as Cosmote or Vodafone, with fast 4G/LTE and 5G in Athens and Thessaloniki. Cosmote covers about 99% of the population, so you get solid coverage across the mainland and all the popular islands.
Yes. Santorini, Mykonos, Crete, Rhodes and Corfu all have solid 4G, and the ferries keep signal near the islands, dropping only on long open-sea stretches before reconnecting as you approach port. One tip: on border islands like Corfu (near Albania) or Kos and Lesvos (near Turkey), set your network manually to a Greek operator so your phone doesn't latch onto a foreign network by mistake.
A Greece-only plan covers all of Greece, mainland and islands, but stops at the national border — and it won't cover nearby non-EU countries like Albania or Turkey. If your trip continues into other parts of Europe, choose an Airlivo Europe regional eSIM that covers many countries on one plan.
For maps, messaging, browsing and social media, most travellers use 1-2 GB a day, so 5-10 GB comfortably covers a week of island-hopping. Hotels and cafés usually have Wi-Fi. If you'll post lots of photos and videos or stream, go for 20 GB or an unlimited plan.
Choose by trip length and usage: Airlivo Greece data plans run from 1 GB up to 50 GB and unlimited. For a week of island-hopping with plenty of photos, a larger 10-20 GB plan is the sweet spot. If Greece is your only stop, a Greece plan is best value; add other countries and a Europe regional plan wins. Install it before you fly.
No, it's data only and doesn't include a Greek number. You can call and message over the internet with WhatsApp, Viber, FaceTime or similar apps, and your own number stays active on your main SIM for anything that needs it, such as bank verification codes.

Travel Tips

Greece — Useful tips for your trip

1

Ferries are the main way to get between Greek islands. Book in advance on Ferryscanner.com or directly through the ferry companies, especially in summer when boats fill up fast. Piraeus port in Athens is the main hub for most island connections.

2

The ancient sights cost more than you’d expect. The Acropolis ticket (which includes other Athens sites) has gone up in recent years. Buy the combo ticket covering multiple archaeological sites — it’s much better value than paying separately. And go early in the morning before the cruise ship passengers arrive.

3

Greek lunch is the big meal and dinner comes late — restaurants barely fill up before 21:00. Learn the basics: ‘Parakalo’ (please / you’re welcome), ‘Efharisto’ (thank you) and ‘Yamas’ (cheers) make a real difference. Greek hospitality runs deep and a few words in Greek go much further than you’d expect.

4

On Santorini, Oia is famous for sunsets but absolutely packed — consider watching from a different viewpoint to avoid the worst of the crowds. On Santorini, Mykonos and other popular islands water is a limited resource. Buy less plastic, reduce waste and be mindful of the ecosystem of these small islands.

5

If you order fresh fish in a coastal taverna, ask for the price first — it’s usually priced by weight and can get expensive if you’re not paying attention. For a full dinner with wine, a taverna with a handwritten menu and locals inside is always your best bet. The shiny tourist restaurants at the harbour front are rarely the best value.

Greece — Athens, Santorini, Mykonos, the Acropolis and thousands of islands across the Mediterranean. Order your eSIM, get your QR code instantly, set up before you fly. Connected in Athens, Thessaloniki and across every island, no roaming.
