Internet in the Balkans 2024 - what do you need to know?

Added: 18.01.2024, Updated: 05.02.2024,

The Balkans is a region that is growing in popularity. Many Poles decide to take road trips through the countries lying there. During such trips, constant access to the Internet is a huge advantage. How to stay online while in the Balkans?

Free internet while roaming

Balkans - Unlimited XOXO WiFi Internet on a Mobile Router

In the European Union it is possible to use several GB per month while roaming without additional charges. This is a convenient solution primarily in Slovenia, Croatia, Bulgaria or Greece. Until recently, countries such as Albania, North Macedonia, Serbia and Montenegro were exceptions to this rule. However, these countries have now abolished roaming fees.

Free internet in the Balkans with a Polish subscription, however, is quite limited. It allows you to perform basic activities while traveling, but won't work for watching movies, video calls or work.

Internet in the Balkans - Local SIM cards

You can also buy a local SIM card in the Balkans. However, you need to remember that it will only work in the country where it was purchased. So such a solution will work only during longer stays in one country. Otherwise, it will be necessary to buy more SIM cards after crossing each border.

In some countries in the Balkans, it is necessary to register the SIM card by showing your passport. There are also tourist packages in many countries, but they are usually more expensive than those offered to residents of the area. They usually allow a specific number of GB to be used within 7 or 14 days.

Mobile eSIM router

The most convenient way to get internet in the Balkans is with an eSIM wireless router from XOXO WiFi. Such a device works in more than 150 countries around the world - unlike a SIM card, which can be used in only one country. The device will be perfect for road trips, during which you repeatedly cross borders. The equipment automatically connects to the best available network in a given place - regardless of the operator. So it allows you to comfortably use navigation also during a trip throughout the Balkans - also where the coverage of most companies is poor.

You pay for the eSIM router only once - at the time of rental. The equipment should be rented already in Poland and taken with you on your trip. After using the purchased data package, the Internet slows down, but does not disappear completely. This gives you unlimited network access for the entire trip.
