What this trip actually needs
- Navigation all day: live maps use only 3–5 MB per hour of walking
- Translation and menus on demand - photo translation is a few MB each
- Ride-hailing and bookings, which need a connection exactly when you have no Wi-Fi
- Photo backups and social posting (the real data spender - do bulk uploads on hotel Wi-Fi)
Budget math for Thailand
Typical tourist usage is 300 MB–1 GB/day. At $0.70/GB in Thailand, $10 (≈ 14.3 GB) usually covers a one-to-two-week holiday - about the price of a single day of carrier roaming.
Coverage rides AIS and True, selected automatically by signal. Strong in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and the major islands (Phuket, Samui, Phangan). Smaller islands and deep jungle run on 4G.
Setup is a QR scan (or one-tap install on iPhone) - do it on Wi-Fi before you fly and you're online the minute you land. Full walkthrough on how it works.
Sightseeing data in Thailand
Thailand tourism runs on Grab (Uber is gone, Grab is the entire ride-hailing market), the BTS Skytrain and MRT apps for Bangkok transit, 12Go for booking sleeper buses and ferries to Koh Samui, and Google Translate's camera mode for street-food menus and Thai script on tuk-tuk signs. A three-day Bangkok-Chiang Mai run is 1.2-1.8 GB: heavy Grab usage (every ride resets the map), photo uploads from Wat Arun and the temples, and WhatsApp calls home. Thai SIMs are cheap (AIS, TrueMove, DTAC) but require passport ID at point of sale - the airport kiosks queue for 30+ minutes. Anon eSIM attaches to AIS or TrueMove at Suvarnabhumi arrivals and covers the islands as reliably as any local SIM.
