Before you buy
For a week in Nepal, maps and messaging usually fit a small plan such as 3 GB for 7 days at $11; if you hotspot or upload a lot, the real choice is between the biggest fixed plan and unlimited data (Holafly 7 days at $65.50). Check your phone supports eSIM and is carrier-unlocked before buying.
