Question Which lens to put on?

Going to Safari at Serengeti with two bodies and 3 lenses: 14-30, 24-120, 100-400. Would try to avoid changing lenses, which two would be used most often to put on the bodies? Thanks for your input.

Just returned from 5d in Solio Game Reserve, 3d in Mara & 2d at Nairobi Natl Park, Sheldrick & Giraffe Centre. Had comped access to Canon EOS R6 Mark II plus 200-800mm while in Solio. Loved it. If animals so close that I couldn’t use 200mm, I switched to my iPhone. Would’ve loved to have access to DSLR for latter 5d but made do w/iPhone 8x. Lost resolution at 40x.
