I'm going to Italy next week.

Their main carriers don't seem in general to offer eSIM for prepaid, though I've heard the the stores may convert a physical prepaid SIM to eSIM for you.

But among the plans I found is this WindTre tourist eSIM promotion for some Jubilee this summer.

It appears to offer an eSIM which you can activate online, without going into stores.

But the rest of their offerings are not like that so it may be a one-off type of offer.

Kind of wary about charging €25 in case there's some fine print which might make tourists ineligible for some reason, even though the product is claimed to be for tourists.
