Best travel zoom for micro four thirds?

For a Micro Four Thirds travel zoom, I'd start with the Tamron 14-150mm f/3.5-5.8 Di III. It's a true all-in-one travel zoom, so one lens covers wide streets, food, and distant details. It's discontinued, so look at buying used and check the condition carefully.

If you want image stabilisation and a steadier hand indoors, the Panasonic Leica DG 50-200mm f/2.8-4 is stabilised, but it's a telephoto, so pair it with a wider lens.

For a lighter wide option, the Yongnuo YN12-35mm f/2.8-4M is small and autofocuses, but it isn't stabilised. Our travel guide explains why stabilisation and size matter when you're packing light.
