When traveling abroad, each of us prefers to look around rather than at the screen of our gadget. And yet the Internet is indispensable even on the most exciting journeys. On the road, he is a guide to local attractions, a navigator, and an online translator with foreign languages, and a means of communication with home, and even a way to hold a meeting with colleagues without leaving the beach.

But all this is provided that Wi-Fi is always at hand, Internet surfing is inexpensive and being online is not difficult. Unfortunately, this is not always the case abroad.

Looking for an operator

In many hotels, accessing the Internet is sometimes problematic. Why? Everyone living in adjacent rooms connects to Wi-Fi at approximately the same time. For this reason, the network is overloaded, the speed decreases noticeably, so even viewing familiar pages takes too much time. And even if access to the network is free, using it regularly is, in any case, expensive.

It is even more difficult to ensure constant access to the Internet if you are planning to visit several countries during one vacation, vacation or business trip. Is it really possible that in every country you plan to visit, you will have to understand the local tariffs and enter into an agreement with the operator in order to purchase a SIM card for just a few days?

Meanwhile, it is especially important during tourist trips that the Internet be mobile. This means that it is best to choose an operator before leaving Russia that will provide access to the worldwide network abroad without problems, overpayments or delays.

How to catch the network while roaming

There are several options for this:

Firstly, you can rely on your regular operator cellular communications, if it guarantees automatic roaming abroad. True, in this case, get ready to pay much more for Internet access than in Russia.

Secondly, you can order a roaming connection service from your permanent domestic operator, even if it does not provide services abroad automatic search networks. However, in this case, the gadget will have to be configured manually, and the connection may be unstable, and you will need to wait for a roaming connection. It turns out that for some time it will be impossible to contact relatives, business partners, friends who remained in Russia, or access the global database.

However, nothing prevents you from using the advantages of modern civilization in other countries with the same comfort as at home. To do this, it is enough to purchase a SIM card from a domestic company.

Tourist SIM cards for Internet abroad

GoodLine has been providing Russian tourists with international cellular communications for many years and is clearly focused on their needs.

By purchasing a GoodLine SIM card through an online store or at the company’s Moscow office, you receive:

- LTE Internet abroad at a price 10 times more profitable than roaming, which is provided by most operators;

To use mobile high-speed Internet abroad without interruptions, sign up for the “Planet-Good” tariff. How much is it?

- The “Sea of ​​Internet” package includes 5000 MB, which will cost $29 (from 30 kopecks/MB).

- The “SmartData” package includes 1000 MB, which will cost $19 (from 1 ruble/MB).

Having overcome all the hardships of the economic crisis and endured all the ups and downs of the national currency, residents of the Russian Federation gradually began to return to the practice of vacationing abroad. Mobile operators, on the other hand, also did not remain aloof from all these events and radically changed the tariffs for the use of mobile communication services abroad. We present to your attention an overview of roaming options abroad.

Calls outside the Russian Federation for the lazy

The main purpose of roaming abroad is the immediate opportunity to receive a call to your number mobile phone regardless of location. It’s clear that social messengers are convenient, but on vacation you can limit yourself to the rule “if necessary, they will find it themselves,” and limit online communication to a minimum.

In fact, receiving calls on your phone is not that expensive. Let's start with the MTS tariff for roaming “Zero Without Borders”, where for just 95 rubles per day subscription fee you can talk to home completely free of charge. Of course, there are also limitations. Firstly, the duration of the conversation should not exceed 10 minutes (if this norm is exceeded, the tariff will be calculated at a cost of 25 rubles - 1 minute). Secondly, you can only talk for 200 minutes per month within the service, otherwise you will again be charged the above tariff for excess.

Megafon offers roaming abroad in the form of the “World Without Borders” tariff, where you will be charged 59 rubles per day. In case of using this tariff service you will be given 40 minutes of incoming calls per day without the right to accumulate.

Beeline offers roaming abroad in the form of debiting the amount of 200 rubles from your account if you receive an incoming call from the Russian Federation while on vacation in distant countries. Once removed, you are given 20 minutes, but the minutes can be used for both incoming and outgoing calls. In other words, you will have the opportunity to call home yourself and, for example, wish your friends a Happy New Year.

Tele2 offers roaming abroad in the form of the “Conversations without Borders” service. For just 5 rubles you can receive every minute of a call, no matter where you are. However, at the same time, you will also be charged subscription fee in the amount of 5 rubles per day. Among all the above options, this option looks the most profitable, since the operator offers you to talk as much as you see fit.

Favorable roaming tariff for advanced users

Not only users of mobile communication services, but also themselves mobile operators understand that communication through the use of VoIP technology is much more profitable than usual. The main thing is to have access to the Internet and a smartphone with support for all the necessary options.

In this context, we can offer two tariff options from the Megafon and Tele2 operators:

• Megafon offers installation to its clients eMotion app, which will allow you to receive calls anywhere in the world completely free of charge. Whereas, the cost of outgoing calls, depending on the tariff, will reach a maximum of 1.5 rubles per 1 minute.
• The Tele2 operator offers its customers the Wi-Fi calling service. To do this you will also need to download special application, which will allow you to talk on the phone within your tariff plan, no matter where the communication consumer is located.

Internet for the lazy

It's no secret that in addition to the provision of ordinary communication services, the availability of the Internet will also be important for many abroad.

Among the most affordable service options from various operators are the following options:

• Beeline – 200 rubles for 40 megabytes;
• Megafon - 350 rubles for 70 megabytes (50 megabytes in some countries);
• MTS - 380 rubles for 30 megabytes (in some countries 450 rubles - unlimited Internet with a speed limit of up to 128 Kbps after using 100 megabytes).

Internet for advanced

If you need more than a hundred megabytes on vacation and you need the fastest possible speed, then you shouldn’t rely on domestic operators in this case. There is always the option of purchasing a SIM card based on your location, but local tariffs will not always be more favorable than those known in our homeland. The cost of roaming abroad in this case will not be a subscription fee, but a contract fee, that is, you will receive exactly what you bought, without exceeding any limits. In this case, you can offer SIM cards designed specifically for tourists:

• GoEurope – for 1 euro you get 100 megabytes of traffic.
• Comfortway – approximately 10 euros per 1 gigabyte of traffic, depending on your location.
• Dreamsim – 10-25 euros per 1 gigabyte of traffic, depending on the country of location.

It is worth noting that the operator itself automatically determines your location, therefore, there is no need to worry about how to activate roaming abroad. As a rule, all tariff plans described above begin to work immediately after crossing the border. Otherwise, you will be provided with ample SMS information regarding all tariff options and the correct transition to them.
