How to rent a "real" 4x4 camper ?

Ok your post title is confusing as a camper is thought of as a trailer here. ie a 7x4 camper trailer is referred to as a camper.

Try www.4wdhire.com.au they may have something.
I dont think you will get a bathroom though.

All the best

Maybe a rental camper trailer behind a rental 4x4 might be the ideal setup for them if they can't find a large Unimog sized unit. but i guess thats going to pile on the $$$$$

Pol.
The vehicle you describe is not common in Australia for a good reason, we are a rich country with good roads, all the major tourest atractions are serviced by sealed roads. Others have shipped big 4x4s from overseas and been very disapionted because we have highways that are flat and straight for many hundreds of kilometers. There are a very small number of places where a 4x4 is required, these can be reached by using a local tour operator but you can easily spend a year here without using a 4x4. The roads that are not sealed are closed to traffic when they are wet because of damage to the road by stupid and selfish drivers who leave ruts in the surface which cost many thousands of $ to repair. If you come to visit us I hope you have a good time. Eric.

Hi,
We are a French family of 4 and we also plan to visit the Australian outback. I found a family rental company in WA - Camperworld in Perth : www.camperworld.com.au/index.html
They have the biggest 4WD camper I found. But the "bush cruiser" is suitable for 4 and has no bathroom. I hope this may help.
Regards,
Juan
PS : I rent a bush cruiser 200 AUD/day - 33 days
