Description

Hello! I'm Fernando, a historian, accredited official guide, and creator of Sígueme Quillo.

If you're looking for a different, close, and authentic way to get to know El Puerto de Santa María, you're in the right place.

My philosophy is simple: Rigor without Rigidity. I invite you to discover the city known as the City of a Hundred Palaces through a tour where history is told with substance, but without turning it into a lecture. 

An accessible, enjoyable, and close narrative, told by a historian and, above all, by someone from here.

During the tour, we will delve into the history and heritage of the city while passing through some of its most emblematic places:

  • Castle of San Marcos
  • Juan de la Cosa's World Map
  • Araníbar Palace
  • Old Fish Market
  • Polvorista Square
  • Guadalete Riverbank
  • Royal Galeras Fountain
  • Isaac Peral Square
  • Minor Basilica of Our Lady of Miracles


History, heritage, and local life to discover El Puerto beyond the obvious.

I'm a historian and passionate about my homeland. I created Sígueme Quillo to offer a genuine, thorough, and above all, personal experience. My goal is to be that local friend you need in the Bay of Cádiz. I offer tours with a solid historical foundation, but told with simplicity and good humor. Forget the formalities and come discover the secrets of Cádiz as if you were strolling with a lifelong friend.
