Data for Lisbon, the Algarve and Madeira
A plan from an EU/EEA country should work in Portugal at home rates within fair use, and Madeira is covered too. For other plans, roaming may be charged, so check your provider's terms. The eSIM is extra data: handy if your EU allowance is small, you work remotely or you want to spare your main plan. It is data only, and your own number stays active.
The networks are NOS and Vodafone. Lisbon, Porto and the Algarve coast generally have good coverage. Expect weaker signal in sparsely populated inland areas, the Alentejo countryside, the mountains, Madeira's steep valleys and on hiking trails.
On the hilly streets of Lisbon and Porto, data helps with trams, ride apps and maps, and on the Algarve it is worth saving the hire car's route as an offline map too. Local SIM cards are sold in shops and at the airport, but queues and registration take time, while the eSIM is installed at home. Sintra and the Douro valley are hilly too, so navigation is easier online. On Madeira's levada walks, download the map first because the signal varies a lot.
