No, it is not obligatory for him to do so, but he does not leave for travel until he performs the farewell tawaf, until he performs the farewell tawaf upon travel. And if he wants to stay in Makkah for days or a month, he may do so; there is no blame on him. But the farewell tawaf is necessary upon travel because it is one of the obligatory acts of Hajj. Yes.
