KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Apex
- Car rentals in Apex have a number of advantages compared to other means of transport like public buses and taxis. If you are to stay in the city for a considerable period and want to visit various parts of the city, such as the popular Halle Cultural Arts Center, it is more cost-effective in the long run to rent a car than to rely on buses or taxis. Rental cars also come with the benefit of giving you the liberty to decide your own departure times and appropriate routes to take to your destinations, something that is not possible with public buses, which have fixed routes and departu.
- If you are arriving in Apex via Raleigh-Durham Airport (RDU), you can conveniently connect from the airport to the city center, your accommodation, or any other destination of your preference using a rental car.

There is a free airport shuttle to facilitate your movement from the Arrival Terminal to the car rental facility located a short distance from the baggage collection area.

According to these laws, every child below 16 years must always travel in a restraint device that is appropriate to their age, height, and weight.

Consequently, it is advisable to maintain a lower speed as much as possible when driving on any of the streets within the city center.

During this time, most roads in the city experience heavy traffic, with the worst situation being at the section of US 1 East of Ten Ten Road.

The reservation wasn't for the Airport location. The desk clerk wasn't any help and only offered to call me a cab. Called Hertz customer service which had to cancel the original pre-paid reservation. Made new reservation for the Airport location with a new price. Also $100 cancel fee.9.6 Wonderful

Jul 2018
Pros:
Car was clean and nice for a compact. Drop-off was easy.Cons:
I didn't realize that the rental car was to be picked up in town rather than at the airport. Why was that not apparent? I'm not computer illiterate so why was this not front and center? An extra $50 for nothing and the rental fee was already high (we just had a rental in Wisconsin at a much lower rate for a much better car). Pushy attendant.2.0 Poor

Nov 2016
Pros:
The team at the enterprise location were great-friendly and accommodating.Cons:
The price I was quoted on the booking site (kayak) was less than half of the price I was quoted when I arrived at the Enterprise location, even though the booking was finally done on an Enterprise website. The manager said that even though I had a quote in writing it could not be honored because it was made through a 3rd party site (again, final booking was done through Enterprise and they did have my reservation). Todd, the manager, went on to explain that the site did not understand the taxes in North Carolina, so they were not correct in their final quote. This made no sense at all, but I had already made plans that could not be cancelled and had no choice but to accept the higher price. The manager offered an upgrade at $5.00 more per day, but still far more than I had planned to pay and had I known would have made other arrangements. I won't book through a 3rd party site such as Kayak again since, even though I had a written quote, was told it could not be honored. I wonder why Enterprise did not inform me of this beforehand?10.0 Wonderful
Nov 2016
Pros:
The enterprise location I paid for the car with couldn't pick me up, so they transferred it to a location that could pick me up, even though that location wasn't offering the price I paid. The car was new and pristine. I needed to rent a car while shopping for another. I was able to buy a car after only one day of my three day rental. They took it back after one day and credited me for the other two. I was able to return it to another location next to that dealership. No questions asked. Everyone was very kind and friendly.Cons:
Limited weekend hours. I got lucky and the location I went to was open, but trying to get in touch with anyone on the weekend proved impossible.10.0 Wonderful
