Traveller notes

Airport pickup
Activates at the gate at SSR airport on Emtel or my.t. The hour-long transfer to the north and west coast hotels keeps signal the whole way.
Hotspot and calls
Allowed on most plans. Resort Wi-Fi is usually fine, so a light profile covers a week; the eSIM is for the beach, the boat trips and Port Louis.
Where the network is weak
Coasts and towns are strong. Le Morne, the Black River Gorges trails and the catamaran trips to Île aux Cerfs drop to 3G or nothing.
Local SIM alternative
Emtel and my.t tourist SIMs at the airport are cheap and need only a passport. For a week the eSIM is simpler; for a two-week family stay a local SIM is the better value.

Paying from India or Pakistan

Providers take Visa and Mastercard. Indian debit cards need international use enabled and carry a 2 to 3.5% forex markup; UPI and RuPay-only cards are not accepted. Pakistani cards need international transactions enabled at the bank, sit under the annual dollar limit, and carry a 3 to 4% markup; JazzCash and Easypaisa are not accepted. Apple Pay and Google Pay work where your card does.
