In this thrilling adventure, a Victorian gentleman accepts a daring challenge to circle the globe in just 80 days, utilizing the latest steamship and railway technology.

With his loyal valet Passepartout, they face numerous misadventures, leading Fogg to reevaluate the importance of winning the bet.
