Short answer: yes, Mission Travel Tours plans private Greece and Italy group tours for schools, universities, companies, wedding parties, clubs, and family and friends groups of 10 to 500 travelers. We start from sample itineraries in Athens, the Greek islands, Rome, Florence, Venice and Milan, then shape the trip around your dates, interests and budget. The larger your group, the lower the rate per person, and for every 20 paid travelers one more travels free. Call 407-377-7912 to start planning.
Greece and Italy are two of the most requested private group destinations we plan. Classic ruins and island light in Greece, art and food cities in Italy, and enough variety that the same group can come back for a second trip and still feel like they are seeing something new. A private group tour means one plan, one team, and nobody left sorting transfers and tickets on their own.
This page is the hub for Greece and Italy private groups. For family and friends itineraries see group tours for family and friends in Italy and Greece. Universities: university group tours Italy and Greece. Wedding parties: destination wedding group travel Italy and Greece.

How groups usually shape a Greece or Italy trip
- Classic Italy cities (about 7 days): Rome, Florence, Venice and Milan. The most requested first Italy trip for schools, incentives and families.
- Longer Italy with the south (about 13 days): add Siena, Assisi, Sorrento and Capri on the Grand Tour of Italy route.
- Classical Greece mainland (about 6 to 8 days): Athens, Delphi, Corinth, Olympia and related sites — strong for school and university groups.
- Athens plus islands (about 7 to 10 days): Mykonos, Santorini and often Paros for groups that want beach days after the ruins.
- Two countries: some groups do Italy one year and Greece the next; others ask us to combine both on a longer custom itinerary.
Groups that love Mediterranean travel often look at Costa Rica or Egypt next. See our Costa Rica group tours guide.
What every private group tour includes
Every private custom group tour starts with a one-of-a-kind itinerary designed for your group, then adds private sightseeing, airport meet and greet, private transfers, 24/7 on-call support, English-speaking local guides, full breakfast daily, and entrance fees and taxes. Groups of 20 or more travel with one of our tour managers. Whether your budget is large or small, we adjust the itinerary to suit you: some groups want more meals and guided visits included, others want more free time.
