What do you wear to a wine tour in the Barossa?

You are about to do a wine tour of the Barossa Valley but you’re unsure what to wear. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!

A lot of people like to dress up and make it a fun day out when they do a wine tour. But in the end, it’s best to wear what you are most comfortable in. Most people like to wear for the top half a blouse, a nice shirt, or a bodysuit. If it’s cooler weather, you can include a denim jacket, leather jacket, or a puffer coat. After all, if it’s cold weather, you want to be warm! For the bottom half, people wear dress pants/slacks, jeans, or a skirt. Or for a full outfit, people wear either a dress, playsuit, or jumpsuit. Keep in mind you will be drinking, so you will want to be able to easily take off the playsuit or jumpsuit when needing to go to the bathroom. Shoe wise people tend to wear stylish sneakers, boots, heels, or flats. Realistically, you want shoes that are comfortable and easy to walk in.

Now we have gone over what you can wear, let’s get into some of the wine tours available in the Barossa!
