Ivar's services

[ladnergal]

I did the Santiago Camino in 2015 and am now considering the Porto one. When I started in St. Jean, I forwarded a package to Ivar in Santiago to pick up at the end of my camino -- new clothes, yeah! Can we do this from Porto as well? Not finding an address for the Porto Camino office, if there is such a thing. I also did use the services of forwarding my backpack occasionally as it was majorly hot that year. Is this service also available in Portugal?

Are you asking if you can send a package to Ivar's facility in Santiago, from a post office in Porto?

I think it's three questions:
1. Can I send a package from Porto to Ivar's facility in Santiago?
2. Is there a pilgrim's reception office (Camino office) in Porto?
3. Are there mochilla transportation services on the Camino from Porto

Answers:
1. Yes. But international postage may take longer than you expect (because it may be routed in an unexpected way - e.g. via Lisbon and Madrid).
2. Previous threads suggest not.

3. Previous threads show some discussions about this

Here's one trick that I use to find information on this forum when the site search function does not give me helpful results - I do a site specific search with google. You can do this by going to google.com and typing site:caminodesantiago.me after your search terms. Click below for a demonstration:

Can anybody give me the address to send a package for Ivar to hold on to until I get there?
