Riga eSIM
100 Latvia plans · from $2.51
Riga has the densest concentration of art nouveau architecture anywhere in the world and a covered market built out of Zeppelin hangars — it is the largest of the Baltic capitals and the natural middle stop on a Vilnius-to-Tallinn run. A travel eSIM covers Latvia; the neighbours need their own.
Landing at Riga International (RIX)
The airport is 10km from the centre, about 20 minutes on bus 22 or by taxi. RIX is the main hub for the Baltics, so many regional connections route through it.

How “Unlimited” works: Never cut off — each plan gives a set amount of full-speed data, then a slower speed. The exact allowance and speed are shown on every plan.Read more
Unlimited plans never run out and your eSIM is never disconnected, but every one has a fair-use limit: a set amount of full-speed data, after which the speed is reduced. The amounts differ between plans — most give a daily full-speed allowance that refills every 24 hours from when you first activate the eSIM, while Premium plans give a larger allowance for the whole plan instead. Each plan states its own allowance and the speed after it before you buy. At the reduced speed, messaging, maps, email and light browsing still work; video streaming and video calls may not. If you want every gigabyte at full speed, choose a fixed-GB plan.
Which networks you'll be on in Riga
Siima eSIMs for Latvia ride LMT, Tele2 and Bite. Coverage is strong across Riga, the coast and the main highways, with good rural service by regional standards.
Coverage around Riga
Old Town and the art nouveau district
Comprehensive coverage across Vecrīga, Alberta iela and the embassy quarter — the facades are the reason to look up, and you will be photographing them.
Central Market and the left bank
The hangar market halls and the Āgenskalns side of the Daugava are well covered, as is the walk over the bridges.
Jūrmala
The beach resort 30 minutes west by train is covered along the whole strip, including the pine woods behind the dunes.
Sigulda and Gauja National Park
The castle towns and the main park roads have signal. The forest trails and the deeper river valley have gaps.
How much data you need
A long weekend in Riga is 2 GB. Add data if you are driving the Baltic coast — the routes are long and the signage is sparse.
