For wildlife any of the 150-600mm, or 200-500mm lenses from Nikon, Tamron, or Sigma would serve you very well on those bodies. For landscape on those full frames a 24-70mm F2.8 would be a great choice.
Good walk around lens 24-120mm F4-5.6 cheap as a AF-D VR if you want to spend more

For low light photography, look at Tamron's SP series prime lenses. The 35mm f/1.8, 45mm f/1.8, 85mm f/1.8, and 90mm f/2.8 all have vibration compensation. They also have a metal lens barrel and are fully weather sealed. The combination of the large maximum aperture and vibration compensation make them great low light lenses. I have the Tamron 45mm f/1.8 that I use on my D750.

If I were making the decision I would first get a good walk-around lens such as the 24-120mm or, if you can afford it, the 24-70mm VR lens. Then I would look at lenses recommended by MT Shooter. Nice cameras. Good luck.
From my film days I had 3 good lenses. 20-35 f2.8, 35-70 f2.8 and a 80-200 f2.8. They served my needs fro everything that I wanted to shoot. They were used to shoot weddings, with the 35-70 being the workhorse. 200mm was a little short for wildlife but that was not my passion. The recommended 24-70 is going to be the most useful lenses you'll ever own, It's good for landscapes, portraits and events. Then you want a long lens for wildlife. The suggestions that I've read run toward 400mm and up, but again that is not my passion.

You will find the D750 a superior camera, lots of oil on sensor issues with D600 in fact Nikon replaced mine with a D610. You may ck, they still may be exchanging them? I sold the 610 immediately and bought a new D750. Enjoy your camera, recommend you try Tamron 150-600 G2 and the Nikon 200-500 out in the store on your body. I found the Nikon heavier and harder to get my small hands around at the time.

I use the Tamron 24-70 G2 series as a walk-around lens for my D750. This Tamron is about half the price of its Nikon cousin.

You may want to consider a prime also. I may trade/sell my Nikkor 16-35mm f/4 for a prime 20mm.

The most recent f/4 VR version is much better than the previous 24-120 versions.

I have an excellent copy of that one. Love it. $69 on Ebay. Many AF-D lenses on EBay at very reasonable prices.
