The first steps off the air-conditioned minivan feel deliberate — sand underfoot, a line of camels lifting and lowering like slow metronomes. You climb a padded saddle, settle into the rise and fall, and the city noise slips behind you as the eucalyptus forest opens to low dunes and the broad ribbon of the Souss estuary.

Sun protection is necessary
