Rajasthan - Madhya Pradesh - Varanasi tour... in 16 days???

Hi,
I will spend my winter holidays in Northern India. I will travel alone, and this is roughly what I would like to do:

26/12 - Flight Torino - Delhi / Arrival in Delhi at 23:05 / Night in Delhi
27/12 - drive from Delhi to Ranthambore National Park (8h), if possible with a quick visit of Jaipur / Night in Ranthambore National Park
28/12 - Ranthambore National Park / Night in Ranthambore National Park
29/12 - drive from Ranthambore National Park to Udaipur (9h, via Bundi, Chittor), if possible with a quick visit of Bundi / Night in Udaipur
30/12 - drive from Udaipur to Jodhpur (6h) with visit at Ranakpur / Night in Jodhpur
31/12 - Jodhpur / Night in Jodhpur
01/01 - drive from Jodhpur to Jaisalmer / Night in Jaisalmer
02/01 - Jaisalmer / night train Jaisalmer - Delhi
03/01 - drive Delhi - Agra, with stops at Sikandra, Fatehpur Sikri / Night in Agra
04/01 - morning visit to Taj Mahal, drive from Agra to Orchha (5h) / Night in Orchha
05/01 - morning visit of Orchha / drive from Orchha to Khajuraho / Night in Khajuraho
06/01 - Khajuraho / Night in Khajuraho
07/01 - flight Khajuraho to Varanasi / Varanasi / night in Varanasi
08/01 - Varanasi
09/01 - Varanasi + flight to Delhi / Night in Delhi
10/01 - visit Delhi + transfer to airport in the night

Of course I would rent a car + driver for the first part (until Jaisalmer), and one for the second part (from Delhi to Khajuraho). In case the program is too full, I could skip Udaipur, still maintaing the visit to Ranakpur.

Any comment would be very useful to me!

Thanks in advance!

You are hiring a car from Delhi and leaving the car in Jaisalmer as you plan to take the train from Jaisalmer to Delhi. You will have to pay for the car's return to Delhi, so is the case when you leave the car in Khajuraho & fly to Varanasi.

Yes, basically I would hire a car from the first day to the day I will take a flight to Varanasi, and I would also pay the driver for the way back he has to do to come back to Delhi.

Another option is to hire your first driver up to Jodhpur.

Got to Jaisalmer by night-train.

Then instead of going back to Delhi stop in Jaipur and hire there a driver for the second part.

For the following program (12 days), on an Ambassador A/C car, I have been asked for 560€ (about 830 US$).
Do you think it is a fair price?

27/12 - drive from Delhi to Ranthambore National Park (8h), if possible with a quick visit of Jaipur / Night in Ranthambore National Park
28/12 - Ranthambore National Park / Night in Ranthambore National Park
29/12 - drive from Ranthambore National Park to Udaipur (9h, via Bundi, Chittor), if possible with a quick visit of Bundi / Night in Udaipur
30/12 - drive from Udaipur to Jodhpur (6h) with visit at Ranakpur / Night in Jodhpur
31/12 - Jodhpur / Night in Jodhpur
01/01 - drive from Jodhpur to Jaisalmer / Night in Jaisalmer
02/01 - Jaisalmer / night train Jaisalmer - Delhi
03/01 - drive Delhi - Agra, with stops at Sikandra, Fatehpur Sikri / Night in Agra
04/01 - morning visit to Taj Mahal, drive from Agra to Orchha (5h) / Night in Orchha
05/01 - morning visit of Orchha / drive from Orchha to Khajuraho / Night in Khajuraho
06/01 - Khajuraho / Night in Khajuraho
07/01 - flight Khajuraho to Varanasi / Varanasi / night in Varanasi
