Staying connected while traveling can be challenging and quite expensive. Most travelers rent pocket Wi-Fi devices or purchase travel SIM cards just to go online. But did you know that you don’t have to do all that? 

Smart has made it easy and hassle-free to get roaming and data service with its new Smart GigaRoam packages! This is what we used during our recent trip to Tokyo Game Show 2024 and even when we traveled around Tokyo after the event.

Right as we landed at Narita airport, we were already instantly connected to Smart’s partner provider. We subscribed to one of Smart GigaRoams plans, the 3GB data allocation for Php 999, which was valid for 10 days. The duration of the subscription was already as long as our trip!

It was easy to turn our data on and off using our mobile devices, and the SIM card with the roaming package can be doubled up as a hotspot. This means you can share your data across different devices and your companions on the trip!

It was also incredibly convenient to check our data consumption and status through the Smart GigaRoam website. You just need to input your mobile number, enter your OTP, and voila! You can check all information in one area.

This is also where you can subscribe to more packages if you feel like you’ll need more data on your trip.

The connection across Tokyo was also very stable. We stayed connected while we were going through the crowded areas of Makuhari Messe and the tight tourist spots of Akihabara Electric Town, commuting around Tokyo Station, and shopping at the Pokemon Center.

Having a stable connection is one thing, but being able to browse and upload images, files, or videos is another. And, Smart GigaRoam was able to consistently deliver top speeds across the busy areas of the Tokyo metro. We even did speed tests at various spots to double-check!

Overall, if you don’t want the hassle of booking a pocket Wi-Fi or purchasing a travel SIM or eSIM, you might want to check out the affordable packages from Smart GigaRoam.

The 3GB package for Php 999 is pretty worth it and can last a whole trip, as long as you don’t overuse your data or upload too many heavy files. If you need more data, Smart also has bigger allocations or you can top up anytime on your trip!
