Tanzania Safari / Telephoto Lens Dilemma

JEJE12

I am heading for my first African Safari next week. I will be visiting Taranguire, Ngorongoro, Ndutu and central Serengeti. I am taking my R5 and R6 Mark II. For lens, I will be bringing my RF 70-200 F 2.8, RF 16-28 F2.8 for wide angle and the hot air balloon ride.. My dilemma is the telephoto. I recently purchased the RF200-800 and a teleconverter ( 1.4 ) as I often go to Yellowstone and often time animals are quite far... But I also own the RF 100-500. Which one would you recommend I take with me? Do you think I have enough reach with the 100-500 and possibly the teleconverter for the areas I am visiting or should I favor more reach? 

I really appreciate your input. In any case, I am excited and know I will have a fantastic time.. I just have a hard time deciding what lens to take with me. Thank you in advance.

Thank you. I will. Super excited. I booked this a year ago so the anticipation has been growing to say the least.
