Good to know before you go to Italy
Italy has consistent, reliable signal in every major city and along the main train corridors, so an eSIM works well whether you are doing a Rome-Florence-Venice route or driving the Amalfi Coast, where coverage does dip in the tunnels and cliffside stretches. Coastal Sicily and Sardinia are well covered near the towns and beaches, less so inland. Most travelers here lean on maps, translation apps, and restaurant lookups rather than heavy streaming, so 3-5GB a week is typically enough — bump it up if you are working remotely or sharing a hotspot with a travel companion.
