What is the Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip Season 5 format?

For Season 5, the Housewives in the cast will be making their way through memorable locations from the franchise’s history. In honor of the franchise’s 20th anniversary, the ladies will start in Orange County, where everything began back in 2006. They’ll travel to Beverly Hills, Atlanta, and Miami before a “grand finale” on the East Coast in New York City.

“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 ahead,” according to a press release from Bravo. “Along the way, viewers can expect nostalgic reunions, heartfelt revelations, effortless humor, and the larger-than-life dynamics that only Housewives can deliver.”

This format is different from past RHUGT seasons, which followed Housewives from different franchises as they vacationed together. For Season 1, the group went to Turks and Caicos, followed by trips to Massachusetts, Thailand, and St. Barts in subsequent seasons. A season in Morocco was filmed, but never aired due to Caroline Manzo‘s accusations of sexual assault against Brandi Glanville during production.
