I'm in England and would like to send gifts to relatives in Abu Dhabi. Does anyone have experience sending or receiving packages from the UK?
I'd like to send a book but the Royal Mail says that posting books is prohibited, is this right? royalmail.com/united-arab-emirates
Alternatively are there any websites within the UAE that I could order from (ordering/paying from the UK) for delivery to Abu Dhabi?

Hello,
You can use a shipping company like aramex or DHL to send your package from door to door. a clear address and an invoice is needed, and ur good to go.
for websites within the UAE, souq.com is the most common e-commerce site in the gulf, so you can check that.
Regards,
