mirrorless for Rome Help

Hey Everyone! This post is Cross posted as I think insight from my two camps would be helpful and interesting.

MY wife and I are traveling to Rome in January and I am excited to take my camera.

Which one should I take

Currently, I have a Canon EOS RP and an Olympus om-d E-m10 mk iii.

Canon Glass: 100mm f2.8L, 85mm f1.8, 50mm f1.8, 100-300 f5.6L, 28-135mm f3.5-5.6 USM, 10-18mm EF-s, and lastly the 35mm RF.

M43 glass: 14-42mm pancake kit lens, 45mm f1.8 m. zuiko, 20mm f1.7 pany, 9mm body cap f8, and a rokinon 7.5mm f3.5.

I am having trouble deciding which system I should take with me. My ideal setup would be a middle of the road 30-50mm low light lens for inside churches, and general zoom walking lens, and a wide angle.

The em10iii body is smaller, but not by much. The lenses are MUCH smaller.

The RP has better low light performance and has a general advantage in most fields except for being big and standing out. I also have a longer tele I can suck up and use for a walk around, but it's not ideal.

Which system should I bring? Should I buy a dedicated travel lens for that system?
