The engine hums beneath a thin layer of red dust as the Palmeraie unfurls—clumps of date palms give way to low rocky plains and arid washes. In a pair of two-seater buggies the group peels away from Marrakech, wind sharpening the scent of mint and sun-baked earth as the guide points toward a distant Berber village.
