Eastern France + Switzerland Travel Lens
My wife and I are taking a two week trip to eastern France and Switzerland in early September this year. I'm already researching where I want to go and what I want to photograph. I keep debating what lens to take. I have a 24-105L, 50mm 1.8, and a 70-200f4L. I know we will be outside quite a bit touring vineyards and getting into the mountains. We will also be doing some museums and wine cellar tours. Trying to travel as light as possible as we will be renting a car for half the trip and train hopping the second half in Switzerland. My question is am I good with the 24-105 or should I rent a wider angle lens? How about the f4 on the 24-105. Is that low enough of an aperture to get me through some of the indoor activities. I shoot with a 6D.

Zermatt/St Moritz in September ? I was there in April and we had snow in the towns, went up Gronergrat to 3200m and the temperature dropped to -24 degrees, but it felt hot in the sun and took my breath away... Killed my Fuji camera up there, be very careful. Also been up the Swiss passes in July, snow at the side of the road was quite unexpected ;-)
The Glacier Express is nice, but we have been back since in a car and enjoyed the freedom of being able to stop anywhere. Sit on the right if departing from Zermatt for the best views, but you will have sun reflections on that side.
