Internet in Peru: everything you need to know

Peru has 80% internet penetration and ~87% 4G mobile coverage (source: ITU DataHub, 2024). An eSIM connects to Claro, Movistar or Entel the moment you land at Lima (LIM) or Cuzco (CUZ), with no carrier-kiosk queue. 5G is live in Lima, Arequipa and Trujillo.

  • 4G coverage in major cities (Lima, Arequipa, Trujillo, Cuzco, Puno) and along the Panamericana; weak to none in the Amazon jungle (except Iquitos) and on Salkantay or Choquequirao treks.
  • Average mobile speed ~30–40 Mbps download per Ookla (Q1 2025); Claro dominates national coverage.
  • No Western services blocked: Google, WhatsApp, Instagram, X, YouTube and Netflix work normally.
  • Great for Uber, InDriver, Cabify (Lima, Arequipa), offline Google Maps for treks and BCP / Interbank banking.

Frequently asked questions

Does the eSIM really work in Peru?

Yes. International eSIMs connect to Claro, Movistar or Entel on landing in Lima or Cuzco. Excellent coverage in tourist cities and good along major routes.

How much data for a classic Lima-Cuzco-Machu Picchu trip?

For 10 days, 5–7 GB covers Maps, WhatsApp, cloud photos and light streaming. More if you stream a lot of video.

Is there signal at Machu Picchu and on the Inca Trail?

No signal at the sanctuary or on the classic Camino Inca. Aguas Calientes has good coverage. Download offline maps and tickets before the trek.

Can I use my European plan in Peru?

Non-EU roaming is charged at premium rates (up to €10/MB). Check your provider; otherwise a travel eSIM is much cheaper.

Can I share the connection with other devices?

Most Peru eSIM plans allow hotspot: the field is listed on each Datadopt offer detail page.
