Wide-angles are definitely order of the day,loads of classical architecture, 80-200 sounds good for urban detail shots (and if you get into the countryside) , never got to Rome on my last trips ,but if the tour goes via Milan the city is great too, at least if they've now got the scaffolding off the front of the cathedral, superb place for shopping too.
