On my recent trip to Egypt, I took only three lenses - an M50/1.7, 16-45 zoom and 50-200 zoom. Out of the three, the 16-45 I used most often, the 50-200 next, and the prime only for a few available (low) light shots. I'm more than satisfied with the results, and so if you want to take just one lens, I would say take a zoom in the wide to medium-tele range: if you have one, of course!.

If I'm taking one lens, I definitely want the flexibility of a zoom with fairly wide range. I would probably take a DA 16-45 or DA* 16-50.
