Even though the centaur player race allows for any medium sized creature to ride it, it would be hard to say that a centaur has the appropriate mount to be ridden by another centaur. Sadly, while a Tower of Centaurs seems like a great time, it’s sadly an impossibility in Dungeons & Dragons rules.

How does disengage work for a centaur being a Mount?
Disengage still requires the rider to use a Ready action, but as quoted above, if the mount doesn’t provoke, the rider doesn’t either. This makes the target’s reach irrelevant, but does mean the mount can’t Dash. Thanks for contributing an answer to Role-playing Games Stack Exchange!
How big does a centaur Stack have to be?
But they need to be a strong centaur, and/or the other one must be particularly small. Beyond a single rider, movement of the “stack” is reduced to 5ft if possible at all, and it’s nearly impossible for there to be more than two centaurs being carried, unless they are children.
