Connectivity in France
France maintains solid coverage in its cities, along the TGV network and across most of the coastline, so a journey from Paris to Marseille or Bordeaux rarely loses signal for long. The gaps sit in the Alps, the Pyrenees and the more remote parts of the Massif Central, which matters for anyone hiking or driving mountain passes rather than sticking to towns. Museum entry and rail tickets increasingly exist only as a phone screen, so it is worth keeping a connection active on travel days rather than only when needed. Provence's hilltop villages and Brittany's rural coast can also thin out between towns, a useful thing to know before relying on live navigation there.
Coverage and hotspot
These plans run on the operators listed above. Coverage follows those networks, so it is strongest in cities and along main routes.
Hotspot: we can't confirm this for this plan — message us before you buy if you need to share your connection.

Before you buy
Is your phone eSIM ready?
Two things decide it: your phone must have eSIM hardware, and it must be carrier-unlocked.
Check your own phone
Open the dialler and enter *#06#. If an EID appears next to the IMEI, your phone has eSIM hardware. This beats any model list and never goes stale.
Carrier lock blocks it
eSIM hardware is not enough. A phone locked to a network — common with contract and instalment purchases — will refuse the profile. Ask your operator to unlock it before you travel.
Regional exceptions
iPhones sold in mainland China have no eSIM hardware. Some Samsung and Pixel variants differ by region and by the carrier that sold them, so run the *#06# check rather than trusting the model name.
If the EID check is unclear, message us with your exact model before you buy.
