from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_profile import FirefoxProfile
import os

torexe = os.popen('some/path/tor-browser_en-US/Browser/start-tor-browser') 
# in my case, I installed it under a folder tor-browser_en-US after
# downloading and extracting it from 
# https://www.torproject.org/download/ for linux

profile = FirefoxProfile(
    'some/path/tor-browser_en-US/Browser/TorBrowser/Data/Browser/profile.default')
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.type', 1)
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks', '127.0.0.1')
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks_port', 9050)
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_remote_dns", False)
profile.update_preferences()

firefox_options = webdriver.FirefoxOptions()
firefox_options.binary_location = '/usr/bin/firefox' 
# /usr/bin/firefox is default location of firefox - for me anyway

driver = webdriver.Firefox(
    firefox_profile=profile, options=firefox_options, 
    executable_path='wherever/you/installed/geckodriver') 
# I keep my geckodriver(s) in a special folder sorted by versions.
# Geckodriver downloadable here: 
# https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/
driver.get("http://check.torproject.org")
