TRIP FILE DATA

Paraguay is the only country in the Americas where an indigenous language is spoken by nearly everybody: Guaraní is official and you hear it in the street, in offices and on the radio. It is also the least visited country on the continent, which is either a warning or the point.

Travel notes for Paraguay

PY / FIELD NOTES
OVERVIEW

The lay of the land

There’s no coast here. Paraguay is wedged between its neighbours and everything in and out goes by land or air: the train and the road are the trip, not the transfer.

STAYING CONNECTED

Data the moment you land

The first place being connected pays off is passport control, when they ask for your hotel address and it’s sitting in your email. Plans run from 1 GB to 10 GB, valid up to 30 days, with unlimited day passes for longer stays. An Ozu eSIM installs before you fly and wakes up when you touch down.

WHEN TO GO

Timing your trip

Summer in Paraguay runs December to February and winter June to August, the exact opposite of the north. The transition months usually hand you the best weather at the best price.

MONEY

Paying your way

When a card machine or an ATM asks whether you want to pay in your own currency, say no: that’s dynamic currency conversion and the rate is always worse for you. Pay in the local currency every time, and leave the airport exchange desk as a last resort.

ENTRY

Documents & cover

Travel insurance looks like an expense until the day it isn’t: one night in a hospital abroad costs numbers you don’t expect. Sort it before you book, and check whether your card already includes some: sometimes it does, and almost nobody looks.

LANGUAGE

Getting understood

The translator’s camera is the tool people use most and mention least: point it at a menu, a sign or a ticket and read it. It works better with data, which is where an eSIM earns its keep far more than it does in your photos.
