There is a "Mini Around the World" redemption ticket that you can do with *A (but that is a whole different story)

Are you doing it with OW or *A? It would be easier to help you out if we know which alliance you are flying with as they have different T&C

OW = One World Alliance Airlines
*A = Star Alliance Airlines

For the T&C of *A, refer to Round the World Terms and Conditions - Star Alliance to section 3.2, 3.3, 3.4
(too much to quote) that will explain how you can travel with your round the world fare ticket.

Also go here Round the World Fare - Star Alliance there is a booking dummy you can enter in all the places you want to go and it will let you know if it is allowed or not allowed. (East to West, or West to East in one direction and has to cross Atlantic ocean and Pacific Ocean once.)

Hmm just tried and it worked, mind tell me which cities you want to hit up and let me see if I can create one for you.

My dummy booking went Vancouver -> Cancun (fly in) -> (Surface travel) Guatemala City (fly out) -> London -> Hong Kong -> Vancouver
