The official logline for Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip reads, “In this special event series, the Housewives make their way through some of the most memorable locations in the franchise’s history — from Orange County where it all began to Beverly Hills, Atlanta, Miami and New York City. Starting where it all began in Orange County and culminating in an epic east coast grand finale, each stop will feature appearances by fan favorites from different cities to pay tribute to the past, embrace the present and look toward the many miles still ahead. Along the way, viewers can expect nostalgic reunions, heartfelt revelations, effortless humor, and the larger-than-life dynamics that only Housewives can deliver.”

Vicki Gunvalson, hailing from the first-ever Real Housewives series of Orange County, will travel across the country with six other ladies in the special 20th anniversary Ultimate Girls Trip special.
