TL;DR

An eSIM from Trip.com works great in Turkey — 10GB for 10 days, activated before departure. Physical SIMs ordered online also work well, though some home-country services may need a VPN.

What the community said

An eSIM purchased and activated via Trip.com before departure connected instantly upon landing in Antalya. Speed was excellent. Plan: 10GB for 10 days at a very low cost.

Trip.com eSIM — 10GB / 10 days

A physical SIM ordered online works fine in Turkey. Some home-country services may not work properly due to the operator's routing — a VPN with a local IP solves this.

Ordering a SIM card online before departure is a convenient option — no queues at the airport and stable connectivity in Turkey.
