Yes. You will have good signal to share photos of the unique pink waters of Lake Retba, located just outside Dakar. 

 Generally yes. Coverage is reliable near the entrance and main trails of Bandia Reserve, though signal may drop in dense bush areas. 

 The connection is strong at the Dakar port and remains stable during the short ferry crossing to the historic Gorée Island. 

Yes. Safety and navigation are critical. Our eSIM provides high-speed, low-latency data perfect for using Uber (the safest way to travel in San Salvador), navigating with Waze/Google Maps, and, crucially, securely accessing your crypto/Bitcoin wallets (like Chivo) to make payments. 

 This specific plan is valid only within Senegal. This is the most critical point for travelers, as The Gambia is surrounded by Senegal. If you cross the border at Farafenni or Karang, your connection will stop. For a seamless multi-country trip, we highly recommend our Regional Africa eSIM which covers both Senegal and The Gambia. 

No, absolutely not. Although Senegal is a French-speaking country, it is NOT part of the EU or any French domestic plan. Most home carriers (like Orange FR, AT&T, or Vodafone UK) will charge you their highest "Rest of World" international roaming rates (e.g., $10-$15 per day). A Cellesim eSIM is a one-time prepaid fee that is significantly cheaper. 

 To give you the best speed and coverage, our eSIM connects to Senegal’s premium Tier-1 networks, typically Orange Sonatel or Free (Tigo). Orange is widely regarded as having the most extensive and reliable 4G network, ensuring you stay connected not just in Dakar, but also in St. Louis and the Casamance region. 

Yes, absolutely. Senegal (even Dakar) can experience power fluctuations ("coupures"), which instantly kills all Wi-Fi in hotels and guesthouses. Mobile towers often run on backup generators. An eSIM is your lifeline, providing a stable connection for Google Maps and WhatsApp (essential for contacting drivers/guides) when all other internet sources fail.
