Our eSIMAdventures plans for Kenya are designed as data-only solutions, optimized for internet connectivity. This means they do not come with a local Kenyan phone number, so direct traditional voice calls (SMS/voice) or registration for local services like M-PESA (Kenya's ubiquitous mobile money system) are not supported. However, you can seamlessly use data-driven communication apps like WhatsApp, FaceTime, or Skype for calls and messaging, ensuring you stay connected with your expedition team and loved ones.
