My “opinion” is DON’T do it !
While there is no doubt that a stand alone camera with a telephoto lens will take better pictures, also consider the inconvenience of having to carry it around with the telephoto lens and possibly other lenses as well .
Then consider that getting enthralled with taking pictures will have a negative effect of you enjoying the scenery unhindered by the desire to continually taking pictures.
Your smart phone , for the most part, will give you excellent results without the extra hassle .
As for those long distance shots you would be taking with a telephoto lens, I’m sure that you can find a variety of photos posted online while using professional grade equipment of the exact same thing you’re looking at ……
