I am very often in in the south of Italy and my set is approved, but just for me. So here my recomms:

Wide angle as wide you have.
You will need it in the narrow streets, for architecture shots, for lanscapes

fast 25 mm, as fast you have
Thats for indoor shots in churches, where flash often is not allowed and for atmospheric shots in your fav Pizzeria at night

A small table Tripod
For indoor shots, self portraits, landscapes in the evening

a Makro lens
Beside its macro capabilities ( flowers, details etc. ) it can even act as medium tele lens for portraits

Flash ?
Never ever used one, never ever needed

My set:
12mm f2, 25 mm f1.4, Macro 60 mm f2.8 or 75 mm f1.8, table tripod Manfrotto with a center extension tube.
