Where can tourists buy a local SIM card in Antalya, Turkey and how much does it cost?

For eSIM, a Turkey package from Tonmobile can be purchased before departure. One traveler reports that installation takes about five minutes, giving you internet at the airport without waiting at a mobile shop.

Another option reported is buying an eSIM on Wildberries: 30 GB for 30 days was listed at RUB 1,100, with other data allowances also available.

If your phone supports eSIM, the recommended option is setting one up in advance via the TripCom app (reviews available in-app). For a physical SIM, PTT (Turkish post office) branches sell them to tourists.

Many travelers ask where to buy a SIM right after landing and what current rates are — prices shift, so it's best to confirm the actual cost with local operators on arrival.

For phones without eSIM support, travelers often look for a data-only tourist SIM (no calls needed) — ask about these plans at PTT offices or local carrier stores.

To get a SIM card with a phone number in Antalya, visit a PTT (Turkish post office) branch or a store of one of the major carriers — Turkcell, Vodafone, or Türk Telekom.

Besides eSIM, regular physical tourist SIM cards with data are still available and can be purchased on-site upon arrival in Antalya.

One of the most common tourist questions is simply where to get a SIM card in Antalya — the answer is PTT branches or local mobile operator stores in the city or at the airport.
