Accompanied by his loyal French valet Passepartout, Fogg journeys by train, steamship, and even elephant across continents. Pursued by Detective Fix, who wrongly suspects Fogg of bank robbery, the travelers overcome countless obstacles, including rescuing the Indian princess Aouda from certain death.

In the end, he discovers he has gained a day by traveling eastward, arriving in London just in time to win the bet—and find love.
