You can do a tour like that on just about any bike. If I were in your shoes I would look out for a second hand hard-tail (no suspension) mountain bike. This is about the cheapest option - just check it has bosses to fit a rack. A second hand touring bike would work equally well, but there are fewer of these about and they are a bit more expensive.
The main thing is to make sure the bike fits you well.
