A general recommendation is to place tomato plants about 18-24 inches apart, but plant spacing actually depends a lot on the type of tomato variety you're planting. Research the variety or follow spacing guidelines on the seed packet or plant tag.
18"-24" is a good guide.
I agree up to about 2 feet is best to give them their most room they need to grow.
If you are starting your tomato garden directly in the ground, you need a lot of space to plant in rows which make tomatoes look amazing. Space tomatoes plant 20-24 inches apart and 36 inches between rows. That will be enough space between rows so you can support them and harvest them nicely.
Planting in raised beds is almost the same as planting in the ground, so space the plants 18-22- inches apart. Another thing to consider, is the depth of your raised bed because the deeper the soil, the more space for your plant's roots and nutrients – 12 inches or more deep will be enough!
If you are planting in rows where you can access the plant from two sides and are limited in space you can plant closer. The package is a "suggested" distance. They do fine if closer.
I always place mine at least 2 feet apart.

I planted my mini tomatoes 5 inches apart and my Heirlooms 15 inches apart.
Having it about 18-24 inches apart is the recommended one.
It depends on the variety of tomatoes and your space. I generally plant them about 18" apart, but in a galvanized tub container garden I've placed several smaller varieties pretty close.
