Mobile internet around Italy
A plan from an EU/EEA country should work in Italy at home prices within fair use. If your plan is from outside the EU, such as the UK or US, roaming may cost more, so check with your provider. An eSIM brings extra data if your allowance is small, you work while travelling or you want to keep a work plan's bill down. It is data only, and your own number stays active.
The plan uses Iliad, Wind and TIM. Coverage is generally good in Rome, Florence, Venice, Milan and Naples. Signal is weaker in the Alps, in Apennine mountain villages, in the interior of Sicily and Sardinia and in the narrow valleys of Cinque Terre. Thick stone walls in old buildings can also thin out the signal indoors.
Data comes in handy for train tickets, timed museum entries, ride apps and maps. A local SIM needs ID, and the queue at an airport shop can take a while. The eSIM is ready before the plane lands. In busy spots such as central Rome and Venice the network may slow down at peak times, but maps and messages normally work. Use restaurant and hotel wifi for heavier downloads.
