an exclusive interview with your world tourguide, Michael Palin
Many regard Michael Palin's debut journey as one of the best
documentaries of all time. This highly anticipated US DVD release captures
the Pythonite's attempt to replicate the exploits of Jules Verne's fictional
hero, Phileas Fogg, who wished to travel around the world in 80 days.
From riding a camel in Africa to eating snake in China to meeting Monty
Python fans in Greece, Palin soaks in the world—not simply as a sightseeing
tourist, but as an adventurer sharing the landmarks, history, terrain, climate,
cuisine, culture—and characters—of this astounding trek. Climb aboard
and embark on an award-winning worldwide adventure. Extras include an
exclusive interview with your world tourguide, Michael Palin. Brilliant.
