More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You lift off the shaded lane and the palms fall away behind you — the quad’s engine answers, and the Palmeraie opens like a map of shifting light. Tracks braid through clusters of date palms and duned plains; dust rises in thin curtains while the city’s minarets sit low on the southern horizon. For two hours you alternate between higher-speed desert corridors and narrow paths that thread through palm trunks, finishing with a quiet stop for sweet mint tea in a Berber village.
