Car rental options for Kazakhstan trip

So I've got this trip coming up to Kazakhstan, pretty excited about it actually. I work for an agency that organizes international tours for different artists, and we're setting up a concert there for a major pop star. Haven't had to organize anything in Kazakhstan before, so I'm looking forward to getting some experience in that market. Thing is, I'm definitely gonna need a car while I'm there to handle all the logistics, you know, meeting with venues, checking out hotels, dealing with local permits and all that. Where should I look for a rental over there?

Dude, that sounds like one of those trips where you're barely gonna sleep. Running between meetings, trying to get everyone on the same page, dealing with language barriers probably. At least you'll have some stories to tell when you get back. For cars, you've got a few options there but I'd say go with something local rather than the big international chains. They tend to know the roads better and can give you actual useful advice about getting around.

Concert production is brutal when you're in an unfamiliar city. You're driving across town for one meeting, then back the other direction for another, then suddenly you need to check out three different hotels in two hours. You can rent a car in Kazakhstan here https://getrentacar.com/en-US/kazakhstan . Good range of vehicles to choose from depending on your budget and how much driving you'll actually be doing. Makes the whole trip way easier when you've got reliable transportation sorted out.
