CABANATUAN & NUEVA ECIJA TRAVEL GUIDE | Itinerary + Budget + Map [UPDATED 2022]
Tuesday, June 07, 2022Nueva Ecija is a land-locked province situated at the central plains of the Philippine’s Luzon island. Located about 180 kilometers from Manila, it is dubbed as the Rice Granary of the Philippines due to its vast plains of rice fields. Tourist attractions are few and far between across its five cities and twenty seven towns, but worry not, there are still places to visit in Nueva Ecija. It may not have any beaches, but it has an abundance of rivers to explore, a few waterfalls, and a lot of historical places.
Although Palayan City is the provincial capital of Nueva Ecija, Cabanatuan City is the more commonly associated one with the province and is easier to access than the former. I would be basing this travel guide with Cabanatuan being the point of destination.

HOW TO GET TO NUEVA ECIJA
The province of Nueva Ecija, thru Cabanatuan City, is easily reachable from Metro Manila through numerous bus lines plying the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) and the Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX). Travel time is about three to four hours, depending on the traffic. Most, if not all buses, stop at Cabanatuan City’s central bus terminal, found just a little bit on the outskirts of the downtown area. Currently, there are no commercial airports in Nueva Ecija.
METRO MANILA TO CABANATUAN BY BUS ○ 3-4 HOURS TRAVEL TIME ○ FARE ₱190.00 +/-
Numerous bus lines travel to Cabanatuan City on an hourly and daily basis. Most of these are located in Caloocan, Pasay, and Quezon City (Cubao). Travel time takes approximately three to four hours, depending on the route your chosen bus takes. Take the ones with the signboard Cabanatuan or San Jose Via SCTEX for a shorter journey time. Buses are generally air-conditioned, with a fare of ₱190.00+/-, but there are still ordinary buses if you want to save a bit on expenses.
● BALIWAG TRANSIT - Caloocan, Cubao | (02) 912-3361
● ES TRANSPORT - Cubao | (02) 912-5975, (02) 421-4339
● FIVE STAR - Cubao, Pasay | (02) 851-6614, (02) 851-6659
● GENESIS (BALER-BOUND) - Cubao | (02) 709-0803, (02) 421-1425
● VICTORY LINER (TUGUEGARAO-BOUND) - Kamias, Pasay, Manila, Caloocan | (02) 727-4688
BAGUIO CITY TO CABANATUAN BY BUS ○ 4 HOURS TRAVEL TIME ○ FARE ₱180.00 +/-
Currently, there’s only one bus line plying the Cabanatuan to Baguio route, Summer Bloom Transport (₱180.00+/-, ordinary and air-conditioned, 4 hours travel time). One can also take vans, which are a bit faster than buses (₱250+/-, 3.5 hours travel time).
GETTING AROUND NUEVA ECIJA

Cabanatuan is dubbed as the Tricycle Capital of the Philippines. Just go to the area near the public market and you’d understand why. With that, the tricycle is really the preferred mode of transportation, not only in Cabanatuan, but also the other municipalities and cities in Nueva Ecija. Minimum fare is set at ₱10.00. For longer journeys, there are also jeepneys available, but mostly on the city centers only.
NUEVA ECIJA ORGANIZED TOURS & GUIDES
As far as I know, there are no organized tours around the province of Nueva Ecija. During one of my visits though, Microtel Cabanatuan organized one for us using their hotel van. You may contact them at this number: (0927) 804-2929.
SPEAK NUEVA ECIJA
Nove Ecijanos, as the locals of Nueva Ecija call themselves speak Tagalog and Ilocano. Almost 70%, mostly from the southern areas of the province uses Tagalog, while the remaining 30% uses Ilocano as their native language. Note that the Ilocano-speakers can also understand and talk in Tagalog and the whole province can understand and speak English.

WHERE TO STAY IN NUEVA ECIJA
Most of the accommodations I know in Nueva Ecija are concentrated in Cabanatuan City. While there are inns and hotels around other towns in the province, it is really easier to start your sightseeing tour with Cabanatuan as your base of operation. As of the moment, there are no five-star hotels in the city, but there are pretty decent lodging houses where you can spend your night in.

WHERE TO EAT IN NUEVA ECIJA
To be honest, I haven’t really tried eating out on most parts of Nueva Ecija except Cabanatuan City. From the little time I spent on the city’s restaurants, I never once got disappointed. Actually, I was fairly surprised at the number of good places to eat in Cabanatuan and at the quality of their dishes. Most serve Filipino and Western cuisines.

WHAT TO SEE AND DO IN NUEVA ECIJA
Nueva Ecija is recognized for producing tons and tons of rice but it’s not really known as a tourism hub. You can literally count the number of tourist spots along its almost 6,000 square kilometers of land, but to be fair, one can still get something out of a visit to the province. Besides the earmarked tourism places in the area, one can also enjoy the seemingly never-ending scenes of pastoral rice fields, small brooks, and serene rivers that dot the entire province.

WHAT TO BUY IN NUEVA ECIJA
If you’re looking for the usual city shirts, mugs, key chains, and ref magnets, Nueva Ecija might not be the place for you. Tourist trinkets are virtually unknown in this part of the Philippines. What you can bring home though are delicious packs of local sausage or longganisa, especially those found in Cabanatuan City.

NUEVA ECIJA TOURIST SPOTS MAP
NUEVA ECIJA SAMPLE ITINERARY & BUDGET
Visiting the known tourist spots in Nueva Ecija will, surprisingly, take three full days. The main reason being that most of these are located far from each other. I suggest you base your stay at Cabanatuan City, as it is the easiest town you can reach via public transport and there are a lot of good food places within the area. If you don’t have enough time, you may skip on a few places and limit your stay to two days. And if you have more time to spare, I suggest you add a day or two on your itinerary to visit the many Cabanatuan rice fields and rivers and its neighboring towns.

The Isdaan Floating Resto-Fun Park located along Maharlika Highway, Barangay Bagong Silang, Talavera, Nueva Ecija is now open. It is a 9-hectare restaurant-park complex which features gigantic statues like Buddhas, Zodiac Sign Symbols, Hulk, genie, golden carabao, monkies and many more, an underwater bridge, floating huts, and the famous "Tacsiyapo" wall. It a fun place to visit where you can savor authentic Filipino dishes and be amazed at the wonderful works of art scattered around the park.
