The late-afternoon sky over the Agafay Desert turns from bright blue to burnished gold as quads crunch across rocky tracks and camels silhouette against the horizon. Riders feel the machine’s rumble, then slow to the steady sway of a camel for a 30-minute sunset crossing. Later, lantern light and the scent of tagine gather guests around low tables as Berber drums build into a fire show beneath a wide, clear sky.
