    Very appreciative for their help when I could not get in touch with the Correos directly about my luggage. Great option if you don’t have a European line as they use WhatsApp for communication

    Fantastic pilgrim related resource for the whole of the city of Santiago. Ivar decided to relocate his pilgrim friendly business here. He runs it as a shop/office/work studio/delivery point and luggage storage point. You can even take a walking pole (and sometimes other pilgrims items) from him without charge! I am impressed with what is stocked and what you can buy. This includes the Credential, pilgrim guidebooks and gear like Altus backpacks,Altus ponchos, buffs etc. In addition, a wide range of souvenirs and gifts from jewellery to maps of the Caminos de Santiago to the actual bronze scallop shells that adorn pilgrim streets and point the way. All of the stuff he stocks is available on his Pilgrim Forum Digital Shop and can be posted securely anywhere in the world. But the best is Ivar himself who is willing to give up some of his hectic schedule to talk to me and conversations with him are always uplifting. By the footfall he appears to be really popular which is not surprising to me given the longstanding success of his English speaking International Forum.

    Casa Ivar provides great services, and guidance on how to proceed in your service needs. We sent a luggage from Porto to Santiago de Compostela, and they made the entire process very easy! They helped with the shipping and storage of the luggage. They are located near the cathedral, and the pick up could not been any easier!

    I used the luggage service in 2022. It's very good. I have purchased items from the store but only on sale. Shipment to USA is expensive. Great work and love your videos.

    Ivar and staff have been extremely welcoming and helpful to us as pilgrims finishing our Camino. We began using the luggage storage service in 2015 and would highly recommend Casa Ivar.
