Generally, a citizen of a foreign country who wishes to visit the United States has to apply and obtain a tourist visa also called B1 visa. This visa allows foreign citizens to travel to the United States port-of entry and request permission of the U.S. immigration inspector to enter the U.S.
The "visitor" visa is a non-immigrant visa for persons desiring to enter the United States temporarily for business (B-1) and for pleasure or medical treatment (B-2). It has certain limitations like one cannot enter into gainful employment or work.
If you want to visit U.S. to consult with business associates, travel for a scientific, educational, professional or business convention, or conference on specific dates, settle an estate, or negotiate a contract, then a business (B-1) visitor visa would be the appropriate visa type for your travel. Likewise if the purpose of your planned travel is visiting relatives, friends, tourism, amusement, social functions or medical treatment, then you would need a visitor visa (B-2) for your travel.
