Feedback on my Rajasthan route?

Hello. I'm traveling to India for the first time and am seeking feedback on this draft route I've researched and compiled. Most of my travels will be in Rajasthan. Any changes or additions you'd recommend? We'll see the attractions in each area.

Any other tips also welcome.

I hired a private driver through Heritage Tours based on reviews on this forum and TripAdvisor, and I've been reading several posts that have been most helpful. Thank you!

Arrive Mumbai - required
(2 nights) Oberoi Mumbai
Fly to Udaipur
(2 nights) Oberoi Udaivilas Udaipur
(1 night) Raas Jodhpur
(2 nights) Pushkar Camel Fair - Camp Bliss tent
(2 nights) Oberoi Rajvilas Jaipur
(2 nights) Oberoi Vanyavilas Ranthambhore
(2 nights) Oberoi Amarvilas Agra
(1 night) Taj Usha Kiran Palace Gwalior
(1 night) Hotel Amar Mahal Orchha
(1 night) Hotel Chandela Khajuraho
Fly to Delhi
(2 nights) Oberoi Gugaon Delhi
Depart Delhi

I might stay two nights in Orchha instead and skip the night in Khajuraho.

I'd add the ITC Maurya to the list. I was surprised at how good it was. IPad controls for the rooms!

Thank you.

Should I bother with Ranthambhore? I'm on the fence.

You recommend Oberoi, but isn't there only one Oberoi in Delhi?

i left the itc out on purpose....while the hotel is great, i am not a fan of the location....i feel the other hotels are as good as the itc (if not better) & they are better located....
