There are lots of threads on round the world tickets ( rtw) and you can see them by using the search drop down menu at the top and searching chat forum.
You could start with trailfinders- rtw specialists. I booked with them and their advice and knowledge is valuable. STA do good deals especially if you're under 26.
Insurance is really important for a rtw trip- read the conditions carefully especially for medical, and make sure you have reasonable baggage too. Cheapest isnt always always the best. I used trailfinders but they are quite expensive, although they pais out quickly and easily. You could try the comparison sites for this too eg. https://www.travelsupermarket.com
You will have a ball!
