Rent a WiFi hotspot rental for Italy and get unlimited high-speed 4G/5G LTE data for your trip to Italy. If you are not familiar with what a hotspot is, a hotspot is a portable device giving you secure and encrypted internet access over Wi-Fi using Italian cellular and data towers. That means that you will be able to have access to the internet anytime, anywhere in Italy, including the islands of Sicily and Sardinia of course, on any device that has WiFi access such as your phone, tablet or laptop. In addition, up to 10 devices can connect at the same time. This is perfect for families, couples or travelers that have multiple devices. As an example, if you are traveling in a car, you can use GPS to see where you are going while the passengers can access videos, Instagram, check emails or even make phone calls (over data). We recommend using Whatsapp or Talkatone for calls and messaging as they are free to use and free to download.
The carrier we use for our hotspot is Vodafone Italy, Italy’s largest cellular data provider with the best coverage. The Mi-Fi hotspot works with any Wi-Fi-enabled device including cell phones (even those locked to a specific carrier), tablets, PCs, and any other device, and will connect up to 10 devices simultaneously. This is the perfect solution for using GPS, checking your emails, watching videos, and even making calls with an app such as WhatsApp, FaceTime, or others. Tip: to call and text the USA for free, check out Talkatone.
Using the Italian pocket WiFi rental is easy. Simply power it on, enter the passcode that we provide you on to your device and you and up to 9 other people or devices will connect within seconds.
Your hotspot rental package comes with all chargers, plug adapters, and a return package all packed in a convenient travel case. The hotspot is ready to use as soon as you land in Italy or anywhere else in the EU and the UK (not Switzerland, however). We send the rental package to you before your departure US or Canadian address and, time permitting, you will receive it at least 2-3 business days before your trip.
Please note that, although it is standard policy in the cellular business to advertise the term, “unlimited” Cellular Abroad wants to make it clear that users have 200GB of high-speed data per each 30-day period which is a huge amount. 99.9% of travelers will find that the data provided is sufficient for their needs, including heavy users of browsing and GPS. If you are traveling out of Italy, this hotspot will work anywhere in the EU. However, the data is limited to 5GB outside of Italy, which is still a generous amount considering that the average amount of data an adult uses in one month is just over 5GB.
Italy is a top travel destination, attracting millions of visitors each year. In 2023, approximately 65 million tourists visited Italy, making it one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. The country’s rich history, culture, and cuisine draw travelers from all over the globe.
For travelers who have an unlocked phone and just need connectivity for their cell phone, consider our Italy SIM Card.
