This museum was very interesting and had printed guides in English, Spanish and German. It was a little difficult to get to from Arica, but look for the yellow collectivos that say Azapa and ask to go to the Museo. It should cost about 1000 pesos. I thought the displays were interesting and well designed. Definitely worth the trip. I wish there would have been a map of the town at the museum, so we could have seen what else the town had to offer.

The main museum is a fascinating (for an ex-archaeologist!) collection of artifacts which we are pretty much unaware of if you come from an European background. The new block for the Chinchorro mummies displays them in a very spectacular fashion although their childlike bodies and caring funeral traditions (even an embryo is mummified) evoke strangely protective emotions. Worth visiting Colon 10 to see them lying in situ under reinforced glass (though it is a bit disconcerting walking over them)

Although a little bit in the middle of nowhere the museum is worth a visit. You find a lot of information there about earliest settlements in the Americas and lifestyles of former generations. All descriptions are written in English, too.

We were stunned to see the amazing exhibits of this museum, and to learn about the Chinchorros people... just amazing! We saw the conservation room where they keep the several hundreds mummies that predate Egyptian ones by over 2000 years!!! The museum is in two distinct buildings, the ones have the most mummies. There's a small petroglyphs exhibits in the garden. The grounds are beautiful and a great place for a picnic!A must if you are in the Azapa Valley!

The archeological museum of San Miquel de Azapa outside of Arica contains the world's oldest mummies which predate the well known Egyptian ones. In addition, the museum was built where there was an old olive press which couldn't be moved and that too is imPressive.
