A Tour...| other than for DEEN purpose or trade/educational purpose or for visiting your family/relative or for helping someone|.....is a waste of money....
I disagree... touring is amazing in changing a persons perspective and making them more open minded and accepting, especially because of the interaction with different cultures and life styles.
Except of course if the tour is for no other reason than to stay in some luxury hotel and waste money there.
But there are loads of tours which take you to see amazing sights and places in a country and are truly wonderfully educational.
If it was a waste of time and effort to see other places, Allah would not have mentioned in the Qur'an so many times "Do they not travel the land?" in so many surahs.
I myself love to travel and see new things and places.
It's all the way you handle the money and the intention, no waste is the key, how else can we see Allahs great creations?
Traveling is nice if you have the intentions to learn
The Qur’an, in many verses, urges its followers to travel to all possible places with a view to learning, as well as appreciating the wonders and diversity of God’s creation on our planet. Everything on the face of Earth has been created by God, and so depicts to an insightful observer, the creative power of God. A Muslim who takes time to ponder over the miraculous nature of the phenomena of the universe cannot but wonder at God’s greatness and glory.
A traveler has a great opportunity to view the world in a contemplative mood, which inevitably leads him to thoughts of the Almighty Creator. For this reason, Islam encourages traveling.
And as for the onewho fears standing in front of His Lord and restrainsthe soul from impure evil desires and lusts, verily, Paradise will be his abode [79:40-41]

Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar
