 bus depot by sandysmith
Service is the usual swiss efficiency and on arrival at Saas Fee the bus will enter the bus depot. Above each bus stand is the time of next departure and destination.
If arriving by car you have to park in car parks on the edge of the village as it is traffic-free. Theme: Bus

Since trains don't run to Saas-Fee, the easiest way to get there is by Post Bus. Both express and local buses run from Brig and Visp; the bus marked "Saas-Fee Direkt" will get you to your destination about 15 minutes sooner. If you're coming from Zermatt, you can change for the bus at Stalden-Saas. Buses are covered by Swisspass.
UPDATE: Buses to Saas-Fee now depart from Visp every 30 minutes to accommodate traffic arriving in Visp from Bern via the new Lötschberg Basis-Tunnel.
RESERVATIONS. If you have a European timetable, you'll note the Brig to Saas-Fee trip is marked "reservations compulsory." This is only true for the return trip. If you're making a day-trip, when you arrive at Saas-Fee, go to the reservations counter (follow the crowd), and pick up a free reservation for the bus you want to take back to Brig. Miss your reserved bus? Don't worry -- you'll probably be let on the next one after all passengers with reservations have boarded. At worst, you'll have to take the local bus. If all else fails, you can get a free reservation for the next available bus.

Here's an opportunity to take a cable car high above Saas-Fee to the station known as Felskinn... and, if you want to, take the world's highest "subway train" to the icy perch of Allalin.
Felskinn, at an altitude of 3000 meters (about 9,850 feet), offers some magnificent views of both the Fee and Chessjen Glaciers. The station itself has a cafeteria and facilities. You will also notice a path along the glacier; if you take this, you can make your way to the beautiful outpost known as the Britannia Hütte after a fairly level but technically challenging hike (this is what we did).
Also at Felskinn, you can transfer to the "Metro Alpin" and climb up to the 3500 meter (about 11,500 feet) Allalin station. At this height, you can enjoy a rotating restaurant, a cafeteria, and the Mittelallin Ice Pavilion.
Fare from Saas-Fee to Felskinn is CHF 27 one-way, CHF 35 round trip. Fare from Saas-Fee to Allalin is CHF 53 one-way, CHF 69 round trip. 50% discount with Swisspass.
