I'm dying to go to Greece, but don't want to travel for 3 weeks solo. Looking for a relaxed itinerary and tour group less than 16. Any recommendations? Thanks,

Intrepid travel premium tours have a maximum of 12 people.
OAT usually has a 16-person max, depending on the tour: https://www.oattravel.com/?icid=global:logo
Check out Apostolos Douras and his Wonders of Epirus tour at wondersofknowledge.com. Apostolos was our guide on our March 2024 RS Athens and the Heart of Greece tour. He's a wonderful guide and an even better person and we have just signed up for his May 2025 Wonders of Epirus tour. The tour is small group and we're really looking forward to seeing more of rural Greece with its villages and mountainous areas.
Thanks for the suggestions. I love OAT and Road Scholars. Will check out the others. I appreciate your feedback.
Also, try Adventures with Sarah.net, Sarah Murdoch is a former Rick Steves guide and helped write his Sicily guidebook. She offers tours in places other than Greece. I’m signed up next year for Romania. Group size usually under 16 people. My Florence staycation had 7 people!

Seymour Travels is offering a Greek tour in 2025. Mark Seymour, the owner, is a former RS guide. His tours are pretty active,though so not sure if that meets your "relaxed itinerary" criterion. Tours are no more than 10 people plus 2 guides. It looks like there is still space for Fall 2025.
Pam, thanks for the suggestion. I'll check it out.!
