Will one eSIM cover the whole walk?

Yes, a plan for Iraq covers the country, including the road between Najaf and Karbala. What varies is speed on the busiest days.

Can I share my connection with the group?

You can use your phone as a hotspot, but on peak days it is slow and drains the battery. One small plan per person is steadier.

What if I run out of data?

You can top up the same eSIM from the app, without installing anything new, as long as you can get online for a moment.
