The eccentric English gentleman Phileas Fogg accepts a challenge to circle the globe in no more than 80 days, an incredible feat for the Victorian age. Exotic locales, seemingly insurmountable obstacles, and comic relief (chiefly supplied by Fogg's loyal valet, Passepartout) provide a fantastic blend of adventure, entertainment, and suspense.
