Description

Phileas Fogg is a remarkably precise and enigmatic gentleman who spends his days in the quiet comforts of his London club. When a spirited debate about the speed of modern travel turns into a wager, he boldly declares that he can circle the globe in exactly eighty days. Accepting the challenge, he enlists the loyal and quick‑witted French valet, Passepartout, who is eager to prove his worth and share in the adventure.

Their expedition bursts from the bustling streets of London onto steamships, railways, and even elephant‑drawn caravans, taking them across deserts, jungles, and bustling ports. Along the way a dogged detective named Fix becomes convinced the pair are involved in a crime, adding a relentless pursuit to their already frantic schedule. Listeners will travel alongside Fogg and his companions, feeling the thrill of each narrow escape and marvel at the vivid landscapes that define this classic tale of determination, friendship, and the surprising joys of a world on the move.
