Croatia, with all its postcard-worthy beaches and small towns, is the kind of country that you'll need a local SIM card in. By joining a mobile network here, you will be able to stay connected with everyone regardless of where you are in the country. And in fact, it should be a rule of thumb that whenever one goes to a different country and stays there for a substantial period of time, he/she should get a local SIM card. So when talking about going to Croatia, here are the biggest local mobile networks you can join!
Hrvatski Telekom
Formerly known as T-Mobile, the Croatian version of the
American network, Hrvatski Telekom is the biggest telecommunications company in Croatia today. It currently has the widest coverage out of all the mobile networks in the country and offers 2G/3G/4G data to all subscribers. So wherever you are in Croatia, be it in the more rural coastlines or the bustling metropolises, you can still get ample data coverage and stay online. Moreover, Hrvatski Telekom also has its own mobile virtual network operator,
bonbon, that offers 4G/LTE plans to all. You'll really get bang for your buck with this network!
A1
As the second-biggest provider in Croatia, A1 is practically on par with Hrvatski Telekom when it comes to coverage. Granted, the latter has a bigger scope, the former still offers a bevy of plans and packages that will draw any potential subscriber in. And like Hrvatski Telekom, A1 also has its own MVNO, tomato. However, affordability is the name of this network’s game, offering their best deals ranging from 5.00 kn to 249.00 kn. And you get the better end of the deal with 1 to unlimited GB of data as well as thousands of minutes of calls & texts included. Not bad for those with a strict budget whilst in Croatia.
Tele2
Finally, there's Tele2, the third-biggest mobile network in Croatia. And despite its position in the ranking, this provider is actually one of the best and most convenient for those staying in the rural areas of the country. Its scope is wide enough that the coverage it provides remains strong and clear even in the middle of nowhere! Notably, Tele2's 4G/LTE is included in around 90% of its offered plans and packages. So whichever deal you go for, you're guaranteed to have strong and enough data to keep you online and connected, no matter where you are in the country!
It'd be unwise for you not to join any of Croatia's biggest mobile networks. Not just because you'll need to, but also, you'll miss a lot of the great plans, packages, and deals that these telecommunication companies will offer you!
Ensuring you stay connected through a local mobile network will really help you a lot in Croatia. Whether you're exploring the country or you're just relaxing in your
luxury home here!
