I recommend going to the famous market in Budapest, their parliament, and the crown jewels on the Pest side. Good photo ops there.
Also, cross the Danube to the hilly Buda side for excellent scenic pictures of the Danube and the cityscape.
Lots to see and do in Prague, one of my favorite European cities. Mass transit is easy, the city is very vibrant, and is loads of fun at night.
I was contracted to work for a labor union (not photography) producing stuff that they used over and over again.
I retained the copyright and they got a license to use it.
I always do the hop on/hop off bus in major european cities for at least one of the days.
They usually have a running commentary via an ear piece and give you a map of the city and their stops. If you want to explore you hop off and then when you are ready to move on another bus is only minutes for the next one. Very convenient.

I had no problem taking photos of people in viet Nam in Ho Chi Mihn City, Danag, to Hanoi.
Crossing the streets is tricky as most of the vehicles are scooters and there are a lot of them. Here is what I was told to do and it worked. Just start walking slowly and NEVER stop and NEVER go backwards. They are accustomed to anticipating that movement and steer around you.
In Colca Canyon, Peru I spent the morning shooting Andean Condors and tried every combination I could think of for exposure for the 300+ shots. When I got home I separated out the good from the bad and then the better from the good. When I checked the 5 or so pictures that I likes the best it turned out the were all shot with sport mode.
Can provide scale and often times add depth and layering. I also like a bird, plane, or boat for those reasons.
Notre Dam, Paris. I thought this picture of people in 40's garb was better than the cathedral behind me.
Yes, I do. I wonder for those that don't if they also think that other forms of art don't tell stories.
BTW, I travel a lot and used to get "airline coughs" etc. all the time.
Now I don't. The change? I take Airborne and use sanitizer.
When I Travel I use mostly shutter preferred mode. I set the shutter speed to 1/10th the max focal length of my lens or 1/125 if the lens is a wide angle.
This maximizes my dof while avoiding camera shake. It works for me.
I use the sports mode for fast action shots. I've tried every combination you can think of and when editing the best are always shot in sports mode
