eSIM recommendation & experience with Liftago

Hi!

I'm planning to travel to Prague from the US for 10 days in late March and have two questions.

  • Which eSIM do you recommend?

  • Someone suggested using Liftago, a local driver service that you can find on an app. Do any of you have experience with them? Do you like it? Is it better than Uber?

Thank you!

From what I’ve seen, most people go with Airalo or Nomad, and they generally work fine across Europe. I actually tried a couple of different providers on different trips, and they’re all more or less similar in terms of setup.
On my last trip though, I used Skyalo and it ended up being one of the easiest experiences so far. Activation took a couple of minutes before the flight, and I had data immediately after landing - no need to look for Wi-Fi or a SIM card at the airport. The connection was stable in cities and while moving between them, which was important for maps and transport apps.
For a 10-day trip like yours, I’d probably go with something around 5–10 GB depending on how much you use maps and social media.
As for Liftago - yes, it’s legit and actually quite popular in Prague. Think of it as a more local alternative to Uber. Some people prefer it because it works with licensed taxi drivers, and pricing is usually transparent in the app. In practice, both Liftago and Uber work well, so it’s more about preference.

Thank you!
Actually I already left for Prague and got Holafly based on some reviews I rad, but the connectivity was not so good. Next time I will try what you recommended.
