The sun leans low over the stony plains of the Agafay Desert as dust lifts beneath twin quad tires and a camel ambles into silhouette. You arrive from Marrakech along a road that slides through argan-studded hills and Berber villages, trading city noise for a wind that seems to push the landscape forward.
