Edit: this comment is bogus. I didn't know about sweet Schengen visa .

Only applicable to people from rich countries

Visa costs for everyone else,

UK - $160

Germany - $120-$210

Spain - $100

Portugal - $80

France - $67

Belgium - $80

... you get the idea.

Nope, you can get a Schengen Visa and you will be able to visit most of the countries.

Also, EU citizens can travel visa free. There is a visa free travel opportunities for many other citizens from the world as EU or individual countries have special agreements with many countries.

So no, it is not a 100 bucks per country visa fees.

Should note that the UK is not part of Schengen. That visa alone is ~100 GBP if you need it.

Almost all of the countries are in the Schengen area, so if you skip the UK you just need one visa for the whole lot.

Fun fact: there's not even border control between those countries.

Except airports. And you do need the Schengen visa, plus there are some minor rules like "you need to register with the local police if you're staying in some countries over X months"; this is not really an issue on a trip like this.

Nope, not even airports if your flight is within the Schengen area.

Sorry, my bad. Didn't realize that larger airports have separate Schengen and non-Schengen terminals.
