We are in London in 1872. At that time, there were no airplanes, and sea travel was done with slow-moving steamships, while on land, the first trains were just beginning to appear. Phileas Fogg, a meticulous, phlegmatic, and extraordinarily wealthy Englishman, bets 20,000 gold pounds that he will make the trip around the world in 80 days! Accompanied by his faithful servant, the Frenchman Passepartout, he will experience many adventures and difficulties in Asia, Africa, and America. He will travel by ship, by train, but also on the back of an elephant, and even by sled. He will face hurricanes and storms, fierce Indians, and the inspector Fix, who pursues him throughout the journey, believing he is guilty of the great robbery of the Bank of London. Will Phileas Fogg manage to prove his innocence and win the bet?
