Take an Italian Mini-Vacation in North America

Wishing you were on vacation in Italy? Maybe you can't take that Italian vacation this year, but if you're in the United States or Canada you can visit a Little Italy or Italian neighborhood and maybe even take in an Italian festival. When I'm not in Italy, I enjoy going to my favorite Italian places in San Francisco.

Check our recommendations for where to go for a little bit of Italy in North America and take a look at these Italian Festivals in the United States. There are some great festivals coming up in summer as well as in October, coinciding with National Italian American Heritage Month. What a great way to take an Italian mini-vacation without traveling to Italy.
