Nomad review (2026)
Prices checked 7 Nov 2026 by Steve
Is Nomad any good?
On fixed-data plans, Nomad is the cheapest per GB we've found across all three destinations: about A$1.00 per GB in Japan and A$1.11 in Europe and Bali on its bigger plans. Its Europe plan covers 36 countries, including the UK and Turkey. Watch for "on sale" prices: we only list the standard price.
Pros
- Lowest cost per GB we track
- Europe plan includes the UK and Turkey
- Starter plans from under A$6
Cons
- Limited unlimited options in Europe and Bali (none for 7 or 14 days)
- Sale prices come and go, so the price at checkout may differ
