asking for the kind that vpn hides tor and not the other way

i have a framework with whonix in qubes using tor browser (real one i think not brave) and idk if im safe.

i want to use wifi in public (food places and schools) and be hard to spy on and not have anything blocked (videos are blocked). my home network is also phoning home because my family is using a google wireless access point (cant change it they dont like having internet down for more than 5 seconds)

would vpn and tor fix this? should i pick just one? or is there a better way? (all things have to be on device since you cant change someone elses network)
