A Note From The Organizers
Can It Really Be 40 Years?
We’re incredibly excited to welcome Cappers to Hua Hin as we celebrate 40 years of friendships, memories, and the unique bond we all share. We’ve deliberately kept the programming light because the weekend is really about reconnecting — plenty of time to catch up with old friends, meet Cappers from different years, explore Hua Hin, enjoy the spa, or simply relax by the beach or pool. If you book, or have questions, please post in our private FB group. Open to all graduates of Capilano College's Asian Pacific Manangement Cooperative Program (APMCP) and Latin American Management Program (LAMP), both under the McRae Institute of International Management. Friends of both programs are welcome as well!

Frequently Asked Questions
Will be posting what you need to know about travel, food, and the weekend.
The easiest option is to grab a car via the ride-hailing apps Grab or Bolt. Install the apps before you land and plug in a credit card. It’s incredibly easy and much cheaper than Uber in N. America. Hua Hin is about 225 km from Bangkok and takes roughly 3 hours depending on the time of day (Bangkok traffic can still be intense!). Expect to pay around THB 2,000.
An alternative is to take the train. The tracks have recently been upgraded and it's a quick, pleasant ride these days. Visit the D-Ticket Railway Website or download the D-Ticket app to book. Don't try any other third-party method to book trains.
Tip: There is a morning train at 7:30 am, but it is very popular—book well ahead to secure your seats!
There is an insane range of food options in Bangkok these days! We will just mention a few classics. We will be expanding this list in coming weeks.
-
Laab Ubon : An Issan restaurant on Sathorn where a lot of Cap get-togethers happen. Very local vibe—a fave if you are hankering for BBQ chicken, papaya salad, and sticky rice. (Pro tip: order the corn salad!)
-
Sanguan Sri (สงวนศรี) : Ian's favorite old-school place for a Thai lunch. Note that there is no English sign outside! Open 10:00 am to 3:00 pm, Mon–Sat. Wildly popular, so head over around 11:00 am to get a table, and be sure to check the daily specials. Everything is made completely from scratch, which is rare these days. (Michelin Bib Gourmand)
Looking for something specific? Get in touch with John or Ian for tailored recommendations!
Early March is the tail end of "winter" and transitioning into the hot season. It’s still one of the nicest times of the year to visit, and rain is basically an impossibility!
Pollution from seasonal crop burning can occasionally be felt in Bangkok and up north at that time of year, but coastal Hua Hin stays relatively fresh. In fact, there's a reason King Rama VII built his summer palace here named Klai Kangwon—which translates in Thai to "Far From Worry."
