This visit was a group trip arranged though a club. We were treated well and given a very good tour of the plant starting with a metal fabricating section, the sheet metal stamping area with presses that move the ground, and the final assembly area. Until you see what it takes to build and assemble a car you can't appreciate what it takes, the people, the machines and the robots. Great tour.

Enjoyed it a lot. Very professional. They went the extra mile to make a wonderful experience to us. You get a glimpse of the amazing logistics behind a plant that put out 1.800 cars/day.

You can take a s-bahn train from anywhere in Stuttgart to reach Boblingen from where you will be picked by a Courtesy bus shuttle to the plant. The plant visit start with a 30 minute documentary audio-video presentation on the history of Mercedes-Benz and later proceeding to the different shops of the plant like the assembly line, paint shop e.t.c. You can choose the tour in English or German and as well make a special request for a tour guide in some other language if available. The robots used are simply mesmerizing to the human eye as they function with breadth-taking precision and absolutely no margin of error. And you also see the few manual labor work towards the end of the tour for car seat assembly, manual QC check e.t.c. This tour is offered complimentary for people who choose to take delivery of Car at the plant. There is also a gallery in the main entrance hall for people who would like to purchase mercedes-benz accessories and collectible. Definitely worth a visit if you are visiting stuttgart.

The Mercedes Benz Sindelfingen tour is very interesting....unless you happen to be 6 years old. I really enjoyed the tour, but my son got bored pretty quickly. The wonder through the factory takes about 90 minutes, and allows the visitor to see the cars (E in my tour) being assembled. This is a good thing to do...with your teenaged kids!

This was great. We caught a regional train from Stuttgart and there was a courtesy shuttle bus waiting at the station to take us to the factory. Our guide was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Her accent when she was speaking English made us want to keep listening to her! I don't always like audio-visual presentations at some attractions but the one shown here was interesting and informative. The tour of the actual factory was fascinating. The robots are mesmerizing. Apart from watching those fantastic vehicles take shape, it was fascinating to see and hear about the assembly line work practices. Thoroughly recommend a visit!

The facility in Sindelfingen is amazing. The tour is thoughtful and informative. I have honestly never been a big MB fan but after the tour here I would highly consider buying one of there cars. The tour guide was really good and handled a kinda unruly crowd with class.

Wonderful factory tour and guide. If you love cars, you will be mesmerized. Also a lovely Silesian restaurant in the reception building. Highly recommended.

As part of the European Delivery package we took the tour of the factory prior to seeing our new 2015 S550 4-Matic & driving it around Europe for 15 days. The information provided during the factory tour made me even happier I bought a Merc...very impressive.

A must do if you are a car fanatic. A great insight on how one of the best do it. Host was fantastic, clear, concise and very knowledgable. The tour starts off with a short film and a quick overview of the plant and then you get taken around in a bus to the certain plants to go in a have an upclose look.

Getting there isn't a problem at all, as the public transport functions like clock work. The tour consists of a short film, and a tour around the production line of the cars. It's all great fun, especially watching the cars being produced. The tour lasts for around 2 hours, and our tour guide was extremely friendly and informative, and spoke English fluently so understanding her wasn't a problem.Definitely worth a visit!

I had a short visit to Germany and was lucky enough to have an extra day to pop down to Stuttgart to visit the Mercedes museum, Mercedes factory, Porsche museum and Porsche factory (can you tell yet that I really like cars?). I didn't have much time but I managed to do all that inside of 24 hours thanks to an evening tour of the Mercedes factory (Google: The Star in the Evening) that is once a month from 6-8PM. Extremely impressive factory tour. Particularly noteworthy were the massive metal presses for forming car chassis that I was told sit on concrete 30 meters thick (the footing is 100 FEET deep)!! Everything about this place is amazing not least of which is the obvious pride of the workers. Don't miss this if you're in Stuttgart.

These are the words of my wife AND daughter after taking the tour. Great video intro. Fantastic female tour guide. Loved seeing the robots do their thing and the logistical feat needed to produce such a car. Precise engineering was evident and admired along the way. Good food at the restaurant. Very impressive campus where 30k employees work each day. If you can swing it and get the tix early, definitely do!

This is an incredible insight into the world's most advanced and longest operating automoblie manufacturer. I was more and more amazed at every turn.

My husband and I took a tour with my parents. To be honest I wasn't really excited at first. We had to go through a lot of effort to get on a tour (book super early, or have friends high in the food chain at the company) and I figured once you saw one car factory you sorta saw them all. My husband and father on the other hand were wired with excitement. Turned out they were right. Everything from the guide to the factory itself were top-notch... Just like you'd expect from the Mercedes brand. On top of that, the onsite restaurant at the visitors center was really spectacular. It was a fantastic way to spend a day... And probably the reasons my parents ended up with a new Mercedes just a few months later! One piece of advice... There is a lot of traffic between the plant and the museum in the city. If you're trying to do both (and I think you should) leave yourself enough time.
