On Aruba, with its year-round near-perfect weather, it's hard not to have a near-perfect vacation. Light trade winds, low humidity and a temperature that hovers around 82 degrees throughout the year means there's always a good time to head to this tropical getaway just off the coast of Venezuela.

And unlike most tropical destinations, Aruba receives very little rain-the average annual rainfall is less than 20 inches- and it's below the Hurricane Belt. What's not to love?

Throw in seven miles of pristine white beaches and a warm, friendly population, and it's no wonder that first-time visitors become repeat visitors.

Exclusive Group Travel is offering unbeatable deals to this tropical paradise, good on travel in some cases through the end of the year.
