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.
