This is spot on.I find two nights to be about right. When I was there with my nephew a couple of years ago we stayed for four nights. I found that for a couple of days in the city you continually run into people you had met off and on while on the trail and it all seems like a big celebration with people you know. Then, as the people you know leave it seems that you know fewer and fewer people and you begin to feel like a stranger because everyone around you knows each other from the trail and you don't.
That was my experience, others may have had a different experience.
Hi all,
Having got some great advice already I am back with a few more questions!
How long do people typically stay in Santiago? I will be arriving on the afternoon of my last day's walk. If I left the following afternoon would that be too short or should I wait until that night? I want to head to Madrid for a few days so I am trying to make the best out of limited time! Alternatively is it worth taking a bus to Finisterre for a day? Advice would be much appreciated!

Thank you for these pointers. Will be spending a night in Santiago between Caminos and will try these places.St. Clemente for tapas... or pilgrim watching at Cafe Casino whilst devouring a Coup de Casino.
I Love Santiago and July can't come fast enough to spend 15 days there.
