Tips for Staying Connected on an Africa Safari

• 🔋 Download offline maps before heading into national parks or remote areas — signal can be limited in the bush
• 📶 Use WhatsApp for calls and messages — works great on minimal data
• 🔒 Avoid public Wi-Fi — use your AloOui eSIM for secure browsing
• ⚡ Top up before remote safaris — some game reserves have very limited coverage
• ☁️ Back up safari photos to cloud on Wi-Fi to save your data allowance
• 🦁 Check coverage per park — major lodges in Kruger, Maasai Mara, and Serengeti typically have good 4G signal
