Thick rows of palms rise from the sand like a cultivated forest, and beneath their shade an electric fat-bike hums forward, carrying you out of Marrakech’s bustle and into a quieter rhythm. The late afternoon light strips gold across sandy tracks; the wind plays through crowns of date palms and the oasis seems to breathe with the slow pulse of the desert.
