Bulgaria: Sofia to the Black Sea coast
Bulgaria has three networks — A1, Yettel and Vivacom — with full coverage in Sofia, Plovdiv and along the Black Sea coast: Varna, Burgas, Sunny Beach and Nessebar. The ski resorts at Bansko and Borovets are well covered too, slopes included.
In the Rila and Pirin mountains — on the way to the Seven Rila Lakes or Rila Monastery, for example — signal is good at the main points and fades on the trails. The main intercity roads are covered end to end.
How do you install and activate?
Install the eSIM on Wi‑Fi before your flight, and turn on data roaming only after landing. Full iPhone and Android guide — on the How it works page.

eSIM vs local SIM and roaming
Compared to roaming from home or a physical SIM at the airport — Simbo eSIM gives transparent ILS pricing, install ahead of time, and support in your language. Full comparison on the compare page.
Practical tips for Bulgaria
- Bansko in ski season: the resort app shows lift queues in real time — saves you half an hour of standing.
- The Rila Lakes lift depends on weather — check it's running before leaving Sofia.
- Sunny Beach bars all have Wi-Fi, but payments and taxis go through your phone — available data pays for itself.
Traveling beyond Bulgaria?
If Bulgaria is just one stop on your route, a regional package covers several countries with a single eSIM — install once, cross borders freely.

- Can I top up after data runs out in Bulgaria?

- Will the Bulgaria eSIM work on my phone?
- Your device must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. Use the device checker on the homepage before buying a Bulgaria plan if you are unsure.
- How much data do I need for a trip to Bulgaria?
- For most travelers, 1–2GB per day covers navigation, WhatsApp and photos. If you upload stories, take video calls or work on the road, plan higher. The data calculator on our site gives an estimate based on your habits.
- Does my home SIM keep working alongside the eSIM?
- Yes. The eSIM sits next to your regular SIM, so your home number and WhatsApp keep working as usual. Just turn off data roaming on your home line so browsing goes through the travel plan instead of expensive roaming.
- What if I have no signal after landing in Bulgaria?
- First make sure Data Roaming is on for the eSIM line and that it is selected for mobile data. Still nothing? Pick a network manually in settings. And if you get stuck, our support answers on WhatsApp 24/7.
