4x4 hire Marrakech

I know this question has probably been asked before but I'm looking for up to date information on the best place to hire a 4x4 to collect from the airport in Marrakech. From previous experience I'm not as interested in the cheapest option, would rather have decent quality vehicle, pref a Land Cruiser as there will be 4 adults in it. Looking to be there for 3 weeks fom mid December.
Thanks in advance

I had some repairs to my LR done at Atraxion a couple of years ago and found them to be not all that interested in problem solving for tourists.Their main interest seemed to be rebuilding write-offs for the second hand and hire market and seemed to be well set up for this.

Hertz is a PITA with the various codes they show alongside the vehicles. After a back and to with Hertz Morocco, I discovered that hiring anywhere other than the airport results in a limited mileage of 100kms a day, and there are no 4x4 Dacia Dusters in Marrakech.
I've booked with Medloc (thanks to Chris Scott's recommendation) and very happy at the response.
Interestingly both Hertz and Medloc gave me a better price through an enquiry than through the online booking system.

4X4 Rental Agencies in Marrakech

Hi everyone!

I'm looking to come back to Morocco this winter, but this time renting a 4x4 to tackle sandy trails and camp in the South...

Has anyone got experience with these rental places in Marrakech?

https://4x4offroadmarrakech.com/

https://atraxioncars.ma/

They seem to offer a cool fleet of vehicles, Atraxion even offers off-road prepared Toy Hilux & Fortuner.

Thanks for your comments
