A two-week eSIM for Guatemala costs one flat USD price on our 14-day Global plan, with unlimited data and a daily high-speed allowance instead of a gigabyte cap.
A 2 GB plan and a day of maps, photos and video calls don’t get along.
A Maya Mobile 14-day eSIM covers Guatemala for one flat price
Our 14-day Global eSIM plan costs USD 27.99 for two weeks in Guatemala, with unlimited data. That price is set by trip length, not by country or gigabyte, and Guatemala is one of the 165+ countries the plan covers.
Plans come in 3-day, 7-day, 14-day and 30-day lengths. The 3-day plan is USD 9.99 and the 7-day plan is USD 19.99. The 14-day plan works out to USD 2.00 a day and is marked Most Popular. No SIM per country, no airport kiosk, no hunting for a plan at the next border.
Your home carrier’s pass is the other price on the table. According to its website, Verizon TravelPass is $12 a day, and AT&T’s International Day Pass is $12 a day on land for the first line. Two weeks of daily use is 14 × $12 = $168 on either (Verizon, 2026; AT&T, 2026).
Pick your days and go.
What does the 14-day Maya Mobile price include in Guatemala?
The 14-day price covers unlimited data for all 14 days, with a daily high-speed allowance stated in our terms, so there is no gigabyte meter to watch. After the daily allowance is used, data continues at standard speed for the rest of that day.
The allowance runs at up to 4G LTE or 5G where local networks offer it. It resets automatically every 24 hours, counted from the activation date. Open a map, post a photo, call home over an app. The meter doesn’t exist.
Calls and texts work differently. Our eSIM plans are data plans only, with no local phone number, and they don’t support voice or SMS. After you activate, you keep using your existing number for calls and texts.
That leaves your data for the trip.
What does a capped Guatemala eSIM cost for two weeks?
Capped plans sell a set number of gigabytes, and the price rises as the allowance grows. The cap decides how the plan behaves on day ten.
Pay for more gigabytes and the price climbs. Run out early and you’re topping up in the middle of a trip. Atlas is 4.5 billion years old and has watched continents drift, and he still winces at a data meter hitting zero.
Per-gigabyte pricing is one way Nomad sells. According to its website, Guatemala plans start from USD 1.95/GB. You do the math before you leave and again halfway through.
Many travel eSIMs are also data only, with no local phone number or SMS. You’d reach home over WhatsApp or FaceTime, which is how a data plan works for calls.
How does a two-week eSIM price compare with a Guatemalan local SIM?
Our 14-day eSIM costs USD 27.99, one flat price, and is installed before you fly. A prepaid local SIM from a Guatemalan carrier has its own published price with data, and it needs an in-person stop after you land. Set side by side, the eSIM gives you data on arrival and the SIM gives you a number. The trade is a stop at a counter against an install at home. The eSIM stays on your phone after the plan ends, ready for the next trip. Your current SIM stays in the phone too.
You land with data already waiting.
When do the 14 days start on a Maya Mobile eSIM in Guatemala?
The 14 days start when you enable the Maya eSIM in your phone settings, not when you buy it. Install it once before you fly, on Wi-Fi, then switch it on when you land and select it for Cellular Data. The eSIM activates in a minute or two.
From that moment a billing day is 24 hours. Your daily high-speed allowance refreshes on the same clock, 24 hours from the activation date. If you schedule a plan for a future date, the order status shows “Activates…” with that date.
An eSIM is a digital SIM built into your phone, installed in minutes with no hardware or store visit. On iPhone you can use the automatic method. Open the Maya Mobile app, go to Home, select the eSIM, choose Installation Instructions, tap Install eSIM Now, and follow the prompts. A QR code method and a manual method also exist.
Most modern iPhones and Android devices support eSIM. Done! You’re online before the baggage carousel starts.
What if your Guatemala trip runs past 14 days with Maya Mobile?
Buy another plan from the Maya app when your days run out. Auto Top-Up is optional and off by default, so nothing renews unless you turn it on.
If you do switch it on, Auto Top-Up buys the same plan again when the current one expires. Leave it off and the plan ends when its days end. A 7-day plan is USD 19.99, and a 30-day plan is USD 49.99, which works out to USD 1.67 a day.
Same eSIM, new plan, same trip. You stay on the road.
Which travel eSIM should you buy for two weeks in Guatemala?
The table lists how each travel eSIM company prices a trip, in its own published words. It shows which ones sell per country, per region, by the gigabyte or one global plan, so you can match the pricing model to a two-week Guatemala trip.
| Travel eSIM | How plans are sold | Unlimited plan allowance, as published |
|---|---|---|
| Maya Mobile | One Global eSIM for 165+ countries, unlimited data at a flat price by trip length: USD 9.99 for 3 days, USD 19.99 for 7 days, USD 27.99 for 14 days, USD 49.99 for 30 days | A daily high-speed data allowance (the Daily Quota) at up to 4G LTE or 5G where local networks offer it, reset every 24 hours; unlimited data at standard speed once the Daily Quota is used |
| Airalo | Per country, per region, or one global plan; priced in USD | Our unlimited data packages don’t have a fixed total data cap. However, to keep the network running fairly for everyone, when you use more than 3GB in a day, we’ll slow down (or “throttle”) your internet speed to 1 Mbps for the rest of that day. Your full high-speed connection will automatically be restored when your daily allowance next resets. Your daily allowance resets every 24 hours, counted from the time you activated your eSIM. |
| Holafly | Per country, per region (Europe, Latin America, Cruise plans), and monthly global plans: Light, 25GB of data, $ 49.90USD/month; Unlimited, $ 64.90USD/month; Ultra, $ 90.95USD/month | Unlimited data plans are subject to a fair use policy, which may temporarily reduce speed in cases of unusually high usage to maintain network quality for all users. |
| Saily | Per country and per region, plus one global plan; by the gigabyte, unlimited, or both | The Unlimited plan gives you 5 GB per day at full 4G/5G speed, then keeps you online at 1 Mbps for the rest of the day — fast enough for navigation, messaging, and standard browsing. |
| Nomad | Per country, per region and global plans; by the gigabyte and unlimited | Once the daily allowance of 2 GB is used, data speeds are reduced (throttled) for the rest of the day. Depending on the specific plan, this reduced speed is approximately 1 Mbps or 2 Mbps. |

How Maya Mobile swaps gigabyte math for one flat price
For the traveler heading off the beaten path, two weeks in Guatemala becomes one flat price and one eSIM installed once. It stays on your phone, so the next trip needs only a new plan.
One eSIM covers 165+ countries with unlimited data and a daily high-speed allowance. Choose 3, 7, 14 or 30 days and pay that length’s price. The 14-day plan is USD 27.99. Need more days? Buy another plan from the Maya app.
SR M. gave Maya Mobile five stars on Trustpilot in February 2026: “I travelled through Australia, New Zealand, & the USA over period of 4 weeks. The eSIM worked seamlessly without needing any intervention. Reception & signal was very good throughout.”
Nobody counts gigabytes between Antigua and Tikal.
FAQ
How do you call and text in Guatemala with a travel eSIM?
Use your existing number. Our eSIM plans are data only, with no local phone number, so after you activate you keep sending and receiving calls and texts on the number you already have. The plan doesn’t support voice or SMS, so don’t enable it for iMessage. Many travel eSIMs work the same way, which is why people reach for WhatsApp or FaceTime.
Which phones work with a Maya Mobile eSIM?
Any unlocked, eSIM-compatible phone. The phone must be carrier unlocked, and a device that isn’t on the compatibility list at maya.net/esim-compatible-devices will not work with our eSIM packages. The list runs from the iPhone XR/XS series through the iPhone 17 series, and names the Android models it covers; Samsung Galaxy FE models are not compatible.
What is Maya Mobile’s refund policy for an unused plan?
Yes, with conditions. If no data has been used, you can get a full refund, less any applicable payment processing fees, by asking within 30 days of purchase. A plan that was activated but is completely unusable through an error on Maya’s part, and not fixed within 10 days of your refund request, also gets a full refund, and a partly used plan that doesn’t work properly because of a network issue on Maya’s side gets a partial refund. Our Money Back Guarantee covers a cancelled trip, a phone not compatible with eSIMs, an extra or unneeded data plan, and an eSIM that is unused or consumed no data.
What do the terms say about using your eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Full hotspot and tethering are included at no extra cost. Regular use such as streaming a few hours a day, browsing, email, messaging and hotspot for Zoom calls is acceptable. Don’t use the eSIM as a fixed home or office broadband replacement.
What should you check before buying any eSIM for Guatemala?
Check that your phone supports eSIM. We ask customers to verify device compatibility before purchasing, with a checker on our website and a compatibility check in the Maya app that takes seconds. Many travel eSIMs are data only.
What happens to the eSIM after my two weeks end?
It stays on your phone. The eSIM only needs to be installed once, and it stays installed after the plan expires, ready for the next trip. The plan ends when its days end unless Auto Top-Up is on, and the next trip needs a new plan only.
What do you do if the eSIM has no signal in Guatemala?
Start with your location. The most common reason for no signal after installing an eSIM is being outside the eSIM’s service area. Then enable Airplane Mode, wait 30 seconds, and switch it off again. Give the eSIM up to 15 minutes to authenticate and start receiving 4G LTE or 5G data.
Which neighboring countries does one Maya Mobile eSIM cover on a Guatemala trip?
Mexico is covered. The Global Unlimited Data plan works in 165+ countries, Mexico included, on the same eSIM, so there’s no plan to add per country.
Maya is one eSIM with unlimited data across 165+ countries, sold as 3-, 7-, 14- or 30-day plans at a flat price for each length.
