guided tour around fascinating exhibits of classic cars of yesterday and the
Mercedes-Benz vehicles of the future. Pop into the gift shop for some perfect
present-buying inspiration, such as buying someone a driving experience as a
gift – guaranteed to be a special day. While you’re here, you could even take a
thrilling Mercedes AMG passenger ride. Visit our website for the latest
Christmas and Half Term events.
As the flagship of Mercedes-Benz in the UK, and located on the famous Brooklands
race track circuit, Mercedes-Benz World is a memorable day out for any motoring
fan. Not only can you get hands-on with all our cars; you can take the
opportunity to test drive the latest models around the handling circuit, or put
both the car and your driving skills to the test with one of our various Driving
Experiences. And although driving is our first passion, it's not all we have to
offer.
Inside, you can take a walk around the exhibitions and get up close to the
famous Gullwing and Maybach. In the cinema, you can learn about the history of
the Mercedes-Benz brand; and in the simulator you'll be transported down a
production line. Because all this can work up quite an appetite, our Café 1886
and Gullwing Restaurant offer a range of food and drinks, from light bites and
sandwiches to three-course dining with trackside views.
As well as making for a fantastic day out, all these facilities - housed within
our impressive building and grounds - are ideal for conferences, concerts and
other special events.
