Getting around

  • Grab or Bolt from the airport, then to the gym and back, often twice a day.
  • Maps to the gym, your room, the pharmacy and the fight-night stadium.
  • LINE or WhatsApp: gyms and room owners in Thailand often message on LINE.

Daily life

  • Your bank and card apps: keep your home SIM on for their SMS codes.
  • Translate and photo menus at local restaurants.
  • A hotspot for a laptop if you work between sessions (that is when unlimited pays off).

Staying longer than a month

Fixed packages last up to 30 days: top up in the partner's app, or get a Thai SIM once you are settled.

A Thai SIM needs your passport at a phone shop. Over 30 days you also need a visa plan: read Thailand visa basics. Data is one line in the camp budget calculator, and the rest of your first week is in first time in Thailand (apps, cash, the ride from the airport).

FAQ

Do I need an eSIM for a Muay Thai camp in Thailand?

You need mobile data from the airport: Grab or Bolt, maps, and messages to your gym and your room. An eSIM is the easy way: you install it at home and it works when you land. An airport SIM works too, but means a queue and your passport.

How much data do I need for two weeks in Thailand?

On our rule of thumb, about 10 GB covers maps, rides, messages and some social media when your room has Wi-Fi (about 20 GB for a month). If you film training, stream, or use a hotspot, take unlimited.

Airalo or Yesim for Thailand?

Both sell Thailand data eSIMs. Airalo lists fixed lengths from 3 to 30 days with unlimited or fixed data. Yesim lists fixed data valid 30 days, or unlimited priced by the number of days you pick. Compare the price for your length on each page.

Can I use a Thailand eSIM for a month or longer?

Fixed packages last up to 30 days. Both partners offer top-ups in their app, so you can add the next month before the first runs out. For two or three months, a Thai SIM from a phone shop (passport needed) is the other option once you are settled.

Will I keep my home number?

Yes, on a phone that takes two lines: keep your home SIM on for calls and bank codes and use the eSIM for data. The plans in this guide are data only.

When should I install the eSIM?

At home on Wi-Fi, a few days before you fly. Both partners tell you to install before the trip and connect when you arrive; check on the plan page when your days start counting.
