That's a long time to go away for but also a lot of gear you're going to be bringing. Is the primary objective of the trip for photography? Or is it a mix of personal/photography? I'm guessing it's photography based if you're bringing drones, sliders, and a lot of glass.
I'd bring a backpack and a sling, leave a micro bag at home. Depending on where you are going, I'd leave the drone at home, if only just to make sure there's no legal issues. I'd bring the 28-75, the 85, and maybe the 12-24. Just rough guess, but from the gear you have listed, you're looking at maybe 20-25 lbs just in gear. Wouldn't want to carry that around and depending on where you're going, I might feel hesitant to leave that all in a hotel room or a family members place.
the slider is photography timelapse, the drone is for video, and it's the mavic air, it's really tiny.
trip isnt photography, just an extended vacation, I think a few years back, I went to florida and brought even more gear than this 
sort of regret bringing so much, the 85/200 didnt get much use, however I did use the 24-240 PLENTY, and this is a MUCH longer trip. I figure just bring my most used gear, and use it like how I normally use my gear.
cv 21 + fe 35
or
tamron 28-75
for food outings, there will be many of these outings, like most of the trip will be eating outings 
tamron with the close focus has the strong practicality edge, while cv 21 + fe 35 easily most discrete. I'm generally in public with the 21 + 35 more often.
photogenic places
12-24 + 28-75, however I wont be hurting with the 21 + 28-75
hanging around the neighborhood
cv 21 + fe 50
second camera is primarily backup unless I have people helping out with childcare, or if I have my backpack.
I'll be staying at a family members place which I think is gated, so it should be safe.
I'm thinking the 12-24 can stay home, not really a landscape trip and I think I can make due with 21mm. I can skip the 50, having the king of small, 35, however I sorta like having a portrait lens on the trip. I guess I can make due with the 28-75.
200 will likely take, gotta have my telephoto scenic shots.
