Tips for Travelers in DR Congo

Make the most of your DRC trip with these connectivity tips from fellow travelers:

Install Before You Fly

Download and install your AloOui DRC eSIM profile at home before departure. It won't activate until you land — so you're ready the moment you step off the plane at N'djili International Airport in Kinshasa.

Keep Your Home SIM Active

Your AloOui eSIM runs alongside your existing SIM. Keep your home number for calls and WhatsApp while using the DRC eSIM for data — no need to choose.

Download Offline Maps

Before heading into Virunga National Park, the Congo Basin rainforest, or remote eastern provinces, download offline maps on Google Maps or Maps.me. Even with unlimited data, offline maps save battery and load instantly in areas with weaker signal.

Use Data-Saving Mode

On the Unlimited Lite plan, enable Low Data Mode on your phone to stretch your 1GB daily full-speed quota further — great for sightseeing days with light usage.

Book Tours & Experiences Early

DRC's top experiences — gorilla trekking permits in Virunga, Congo River boat tours, and Okapi Wildlife Reserve visits — require advance booking. Use your AloOui data to secure permits online before or immediately upon arrival.

Stay Connected on the Go

DRC's intercity transport has limited or no onboard Wi-Fi. Use your AloOui eSIM for reliable connectivity between Kinshasa, Lubumbashi, Goma, and Kisangani throughout your journey.

For Business Travelers & Digital Nomads

The DRC is a growing hub for business travel — from Kinshasa's thriving Gombe business district to the mining and resource sectors of Lubumbashi and Katanga. Here's why AloOui's Unlimited Plus is the go-to plan for professionals.

Max Priority 4G LTE

The Plus plan gives you network priority — so even in crowded business districts, airports, or busy Kinshasa neighbourhoods, your connection stays fast and stable.

2GB/day Full Speed

Video calls, large file uploads, cloud syncing — 2GB of full-speed data per day keeps your workflow uninterrupted, with 2 Mbps fallback for lighter tasks.

Hotspot & Tethering

Share your connection with your laptop or tablet. Perfect for working from a Kinshasa café, a hotel in Lubumbashi, or a guesthouse in Goma without relying on public Wi-Fi.

Up to 30 Days Coverage

Extended stays covered. Whether you're on a month-long business trip in Kinshasa or travelling across the DRC's diverse regions, one plan keeps you connected the whole time.

No IT Setup Required

Scan a QR code and you're online. No SIM procurement, no corporate roaming plans, no waiting at a carrier store. Instant activation means you're productive from day one.

Predictable Costs

One flat rate, no surprise roaming bills. Ideal for expense reporting and budget-conscious professionals who need reliable data without unpredictable carrier charges.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an eSIM and how does it work in DR Congo?

An eSIM is a digital SIM card embedded in your device. After purchasing, you receive a QR code by email. Scan it to install the DRC eSIM profile — no physical SIM required. Your device connects to local Congolese networks (Airtel DRC, Orange DRC) automatically.

Which unlimited eSIM plan is best for traveling around DR Congo?

We recommend the Unlimited Essential plan for most DRC travelers. It gives you 1GB/day at full 4G LTE speed, then continues at 1.25 Mbps — perfect for navigation, streaming, and staying connected across the country. For business travelers or heavy data users, Unlimited Plus offers 2GB/day at Max Priority speed, then 2 Mbps.

Does the AloOui DRC eSIM work in Virunga National Park?

Coverage is available in major cities and towns including Goma, which serves as the gateway to Virunga. In very remote areas deep within the park or the Congo Basin rainforest, signal may be limited — we recommend downloading offline maps before venturing into these zones.

Can I use my AloOui DRC eSIM as a hotspot?

Yes! All AloOui plans support hotspot and tethering. Share your connection with your laptop or other devices — great for working remotely or travelling with companions.

How do I activate my DR Congo eSIM?

After purchase, you'll receive a QR code by email. Go to your phone's Settings > Mobile/Cellular > Add eSIM, then scan the QR code. The eSIM will activate automatically when you arrive in the DRC and connect to a local network.
