This narration is authentic based on supporting evidences, and the issue is agreed upon that the sermon (khutbah) will be delivered first, then the Zuhr and Asr prayers will be performed together.

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
If the gathering is large, it is necessary to ascend a high place in order to convey the voice to everyone. The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) performed almost the entire Farewell Pilgrimage (Hajjat al-Wada') while mounted on a camel so that people could see him and learn the rites of Hajj. In the case of the sermon (khutbah), it is even more necessary to be mounted on a camel.
