Naga Excursions

Naga Excursion or famously referred to as NagaX is the tourism product of Metro Naga.

Heart of Excitement

Naga is fast emerging as the top choice for visitors looking for a destination that offers a unique combination of natural attractions, immersive and fervent faith-based experiences, and enriching heritage and historical sites.

Naga City is a thriving metropolis at the heart of the Bicol Region, one of the top tourist draws in the country.

A thriving native settlement even before the Spaniards came, Naga (then called Ciudad de Nueva Caceres) is the third Spanish royal city in the Philippines, after Manila and Cebu. It was born as an independent component city on June 18m 1948 by virtue of Republic Act No. 305.

Today is a premier city of Bicol, a regional center for education, culture and the arts, religion, trade and commerce, and tourism.

Known internationally as a model in local governance and innovative practices, Naga has been tagged as one of the Most Improved Cities in Asia by AsiaWeek Magazine and by the League of Cities as one of the country’s Most Liveable Cities.

Its strategic location puts it at the heart of exciting destinations in this part of the country, with adventures just an excursion away from Naga.

Soul of Adventure

Metro Naga is a group of 16 local government units, led by Naga as flagship city, that have voluntarily come together to pursue common goals, especially in the area of tourism and economic development.

Covering more than 1,663 sq. km., Metro Naga is rich in natural resources as well as geographical features that form the basis for new tourism destinations and attractions that are as exciting as they are promising.

A fast-developing area, Metro Naga also provides a treasure trove of history, culture and heritage as most of its member municipalities were originally a part of Ciudad de Nueva Caceres.

Sites and attractions that await future travelers include an exceptional bird sanctuary set within the Bicol River, enthralling river cruises, mysterious caves, captivating beachfronts and unspoiled islands. Some of the region’s oldest churches are found in Metro Naga as well as other symbols of Spanish rule and remnants of the Japanese Occupation.

Metro Naga provides Naga X with the promise of endless possibilities, and reasons for visitors to keep coming back. Boundless adventures and exciting destinations await intrepid travelers.
