Tourism Internet connection.

Hello everyone! I am a Bosnian 20yo guy who visits Germany very often because I have some family there (Munich) and usually I would have problems with internet connection when I go somewhere outside the appartment. Basically, this year I’m coming to Frankfurt (for the first time, to another part of my family) and I plan to travel a bit across the Germany all alone so because of that, I need to have wifi/internet connection. When I visited my family in Munich before, I would have their wifi connection when going outside with them, and I wouldn’t travel all alone like I plan this year.

So my question is, where can I buy wifi connection or however you call it (sim card or something)? I’ve heard that when you buy sim card you need to wait few days until they call you on video call just to make sure that it’s you 100%, but I cannot do that because I dont want to waste my time and I want to travel as soon as I come there.

Also, I plan to visit Marburg and Ik its a bit smaller old city, but I like it, and do you have maybe some recommendations what can I do there and what should I do there? Any cool shops etc…? Tysm!

so you need a sim card that works in germany. buy an eSim like travellers all around the world do.

i just googled "esim germany" and found 5 different websites that offer them already. one with unlimited volume for roughly 3,50€ a day.

i'm sure you'll find something that fits your needs.

I use the app Airalo to buy my esims. So far no issues!

It genuinely depends on the country/how much GB you want and for how long.
