I've used RIOT many times - quality is ok. I also printed few books with blurb - takes longer time but I was happy. If you can wait I would recommend do it with blurb

Old thread but I am looking where I can have nice photobooks printed from. Do the services mentioned here below (like Blurb, shutterfly and photobook worldwide) deliver to Dubai without problems? Any other tips on where to have nice Photobooks printed from? can also be a local shop

I know its not Dubai based but I have just used Photobook Worldwide and they were brilliant. The program gives you so many options you can really have a lot of fun and the end product was beautiful. Plus in June they are offering 50% off which I'm sure will most prob continue for July as its summer (I bought one in May which was 40% off). I used them for my wedding album (80 pages massive book - 500 aed inc 2 day delivery to Dubai from Malaysia) and then smaller albums for both our parents and they were sent direct to Australia (40 pages - 240 aed). I bought one of those Go Nabit local Dubai photobook versions and I didn't even redeem it in the end as they expected me to come into their office in Media City with a disc and they would load the photos for me and then provide the final version a week later (what is the point I ask you??) - which sort of defeats the purpose (and fun) of making a photobook. They look good too-might give them a go for a change

Two very good friends have used Riot and they were thrilled! I think it's one of the cheapest in Dubai. But when there are loads with more creative options which are far far cheaper why use the local one? As I said Shutterfly is excellent-love all their free offers-and the turn around is quick-and they are super efficient and answering email queries too.Did your friends shop around first????

i think shutterfly is still the cheapest.. and very good quality books.. have had more than 10done with them.. and if your shipment doesnt come thru, they send u a copy free of charge. Excellent service. Plus every monht they have some kind of offer. And abt twice a year I think they give me free photobook just like that..

oh well, anything from RIOT is anything but overpriced. for such small size photobook and the price, it make more sense ordering from the UK/US <em>edited by tipahtertipu on 29/06/2011</em>

I can second Riot books! I've just done one and was really impressed by the quality and the price! One of the few things i've found in Dubai to rival prices of the UK and will certainly be using them again. In fact, i'm thinking of doing one as my wedding album because the cost of these is just silly so might do it myself using the RIOT software. Can I please ask how much did you pay/how many pages/size? thanks Wow-just checked the website Riot are so expensive compared to something like Shutterfly-fewer design options too
