I've never been there before and am having a problem deciding exactly what equipment to take. If anyone can help, please do. (Weight IS a consideration!)

My current plan is a Nikon D500 (For close-up crop) with a Tamron 150-600mm lens - distance shots of animals. I can carry a 1.4 tele as well, but will I need it?
Also plan to carry a D750 for "walk-around" and, otherwise "normal" shooting. With the 750, I am torn between the Nikkor 24-70mm 2.8 or 24-120mm.
In addition to Kenya, we are going to Victoria Falls. I have a Nikkor 14-24mm 2.8 and a 16-80mm. Will I need the wide angle there?

Thanks for any insight.

Size and weight are a very compelling consideration - and if you really want as much enjoyment as possible, do yourself a favor - take a Sony RX10 IV - and your 750 with 24-70 for the wider landscapes.
