Flights to the Italian cities of Rome and Milan are currently available from $296 round-trip from various U.S. cities.

Better yet — there's lots of availability between between March and May, which I personally believe is one of the best times to visit Italy. It's right before the tourism rush really gets crazy and the weather is perfect for walking around. Since tourism isn't at it's peak yet, you'll be able to see more of the iconic spots without feeling like you have to get in and get out.

If you can't make it to Italy this spring, you can still get a pretty authentic taste of it in New York City as one of Florence's most famous restaurants, Osteria delle Tre Panche, is hosting a pop-up restaurant from Feb. 5-23.

To find a deal, head to Google Flights and enter your origin and destination cities. Scroll through the calendar function to find dates and prices that work for you. Finally, click through to book directly with the airline or an OTA like Orbitz or Expedia.
