To repeat, rf lenses wil not fit 6d ef camera. So backup...

Or get a (used) EF 100-400Lii with 2xTC III. I have both, works flawlessly, you get 200-800mm equivalent @ F11 and AF works very good. On the 6D the AF works only in live view mode.
The RF 100-500L is more expensive, and with RF 2xTC it is limited in the 300-500 range (600-1000 mmeq).

And if you want to travel light, get the RF 100-400 F8 and possibly the 800 F11. Together they cost less than the RF100-500 or EF100-400L each.
