I have been to all of those places. The variety of images available is huge. Many will benefit from the reach and compression of a long lens. I would take the 28-200mm Tamron, and add the 17-28mm Tamron. Buy or rent one, you should really have an ultra wide in your kit anyway.
The long FL images will likely be taken when there is plenty of light (almost every day fortunately) so the slower aperture will not be much of an issue. The towns and evening activities will mostly require wide FL and both of these lenses are fast enough in those FLs. As much as I love my Voigtlander 15mm, it is too slow for evening and walking around the villages where the best images are made.
On the islands (including Crete) the evening shots with village lights on can be spectacular. Fortunately these are mostly shot from vantage points where there are rocks or structures to put the camera on. I would still recommend that you take at least a good quality mini tripod for those shots. They are easy to travel with. You can place it on a rock, wall, or other structure and manage to get a slow SS shot for proper exposure or bracketing.
The above whole kit should easily fit in a small day or messenger bag, so will not be a burden when touring.
