A tourist SIM Card is a SIM card aimed exclusively for tourists to use in their mobile phones. It applies local rates and packages for calls, SMS, and internet. By using this card, tourists are able to communicate more efficiently through their mobile phones because they will be using the Hong Kong State network.

Travelers are able to purchase Hong Kong Tourist SIM Cards on the latest version of Traveloka App. Select “SIM Card” under product on the International Data Plans menu, and then select the desired package for your trip to Hong Kong. Once the payment process is complete, Traveloka will send a voucher to redeem the product.

Currently, Traveloka offers the option to buy SIM Cards with data quotas from 1 GB to unlimited. They have an active period of 4 – 10 days. Prices start at Rp105.000. Choices for pickup locations are the airports in Surabaya, Bali, Jakarta, and Hong Kong.

Besides using a Tourist SIM Card, you also have the option of renting a pocket WiFi router to access the internet. This choice is optimal for those traveling in large groups, as a single router can provide a hotspot for 5 or more mobile devices.
