We head over for our first time in August. I already have the WhatsApp that I can use back at camp with the wifi, but I am wondering if I can get an International plan that will work over there? My provider is ATT. What have you guys used. My wife will be six months pregnant when I am over, and I would really like for her to be able to get ahold of me while I am hunting. Is this possible?

Call AT&T and see what they have. I've been 3 times and going again in July. Seems like every time I go over there is a different plan option from AT&T for the trip. South Africa tends to be one of the countries with specialized plans. I'm actually thinking of getting a local SIM card with a prepaid amount on it for this next trip but haven't done much research yet. My Samsung phone allows for two different SIMs so I plan to fully explore that this trip. My PH in the Limpopo region seems to always have good service. That could be another option. I have a good relationship with my PH so I would just give his number to my wife. He's always with me so it would be just like me having the phone.
