I like using the compare function of the ete3 toolkit.
You can measure the Robinson-Foulds metric for each tree vs every other tree and see which one has the lower RF value.
This question has been asked a few times on the forum BTW, so try using the search bar to find previous threads - it should be pretty simple.
Have a look. Might be useful for you.Compare PhylogeneticTrees
