The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Fez are: BMW X3, Toyota Rav4, Hyundai Santa Fe, Daihatsu Terios, Jeep Wrangler, Nissan Pathfinder 4WD and others.
While selecting your preferred model of an off-road vehicle, please examine the rental conditions. In particular, those requirements that concern credit cards – when it comes to renting an expensive car, sometimes offices in Morocco ask information about two credit cards.
Before signing the contract in the rental office upon arrival, check that the invoice figures match with figures in your voucher.
Once the vehicle is assigned, inspect it carefully before leaving the parking. Crossovers and SUVs are often used in tough road conditions, therefore scratches and other exteriour defects are inevitable. Due to this, it is important to check and specify all existing defects in your rental documents.
If you plan to use an off-road vehicle in the mountains, it is recommended to order snow chains. This will save you from unexpected incidents. Other important equipment in Morocco are mandatory child seats for travellers with children.

Common questions on rental process
You should also take into consideration that not all petrol stations may have the fuel you need. If city petrol stations accept non-cash payments, petrol stations in remote areas are unlikely to accept credit cards. Therefore, it is important to stock up on paper money and coins in small denominations. Petrol station staff is also extremely reluctant to give change.
On the territory of settlements the maximum permitted speed is 40 - 60 km/h (depending on the limiter set on the road). On country roads you drive with the speed of 100 km/h, and on highways the maximum allowed speed is 120 km/h. As it has been noted earlier, not all local drivers follow the established speed limits strictly.
Medina is one of the most difficult areas for drivers. In a number of cities it is prohibited to enter the territory of the old district in a vehicle. Even if there are no prohibitory signs, it is not recommended to risk because the majority of roads in historic districts are extremely narrow and they allow moving in one direction only.
