The sun is low and the Palmeraie shifts from bright green to bronze as your camel eases out onto sandy tracks. You ride single file, the animal’s steady gait marking time while palms tilt like watchful neighbors and a distant line of the Atlas Mountains cuts the horizon. A local guide leads you past small Berber farms and low earth houses; the rhythm of the grove and the call to prayer from a nearby village mix with the scent of crushed date-palm leaves.
