The Eiffel Tower…. So romantic and beautiful. A must see! But, we’ve heard it’s becoming famous for a different reason. Sex. But not just any sex, a crazy mix of balancing and teamwork. Yep, the Eiffel tower sex position is becoming one of the best-known threesome positions.

What is it? Well, you need 3 people (male, female, both or in between), some pillows and a lot of energy. Here’s the classic Eiffel Tower position:

As a bonus, we will also show you what happens when you throw in an extra body and make it a 69-er affair. Let’s get dirty.

What You’ll Need for the Eiffel Tower Sex Position

  • 2-3 willing participants
  • Stamina
  • Some pillows
  • A threshold for a bit of awkwardness

Step #1 – Pick the Right Partner(s)

For discussion purposes, we will talk about the position as being done by two guys (the tower) and one girl (the… foundation?), however, the position can be done by anyone.

When you are picking your partner (s) for your visit to the Eiffel Tower, you should keep one factor at the top of your list – being comfortable.

Making sure you are comfortable with whoever you have your threesome with will also mean you will have a certain level of trust during the experience. And what’s even better? If you are comfortable and trust the people you are going to be sharing this with – there’s a better chance you will be able to explore each other’s curiosity and open up some new interests and positions!

If you are doing it with your partner – make sure to be super comfortable with each other and know what you are getting into before trying it out. Threesomes sometimes aren’t for every couple. Some partners can get jealous, so if you think this may be an issue, the Eiffel Tower and perhaps threesomes all together might not be for you!

Step #2 – Set the Scene

As there are three of you, making sure everyone is comfortable is super important. The first 30 or minutes or so of your Eiffel Tower experience should be all about creating trust between you all.

Try a bit of gentle foreplay, get naked and have some fun.

You should also use this time to figure out who will be building what – mainly, who is going to be the foundation piece of the tower (if you are three gents, it’s a lot easier to iron this out at the start), and who are going to be the pillars!

Next, get comfortable. Whoever is going to take on the ‘foundation’ role should be comfortable with whatever they need, such as pillows underneath their knees for when things really kick off.

Everyone comfy? Let’s heat things up.

Step #3 – One up the Front, One up the Back

So, the two of you who have decided to be pillars…. Stand up and face each other with the ‘foundation’ kneeling on all fours. The two pillars should spread their legs and can link one hand each in the air now, or later… whatever you are most comfortable with.

Now it’s time to lay the foundation!

Whoever has taken on the all-fours position, should start to give head to the person in from of them, while the lover behind slowly starts to give anal (or vaginal) at the same time.

Take your time – there’s no rush and remember, everybody needs to be comfortable with the pace you are all going at.

Step #4 – Enjoy the Tour De La Tour Eiffel!

The next step is to… enjoy the ride! The Eiffel Tower is one of the best and most comfortable threesome positions, let’s call it the introduction to threesomes.

Why? Because you don’t need to do anything too crazy, but some of the pleasures you will get out of it are anything from g-spot stimulation and deep penetration.

Now, the real question is… should you keep going until somebody comes?

The answer is… it’s really up to all three of you.
If one of you gets over the line that’s great, but if all three of you get there that’s even better.

Got Another Friend? There’s Room to Join the Eiffel Tower Sex Position

It seems as though the threesome community has been busy adding even more sauce to the Eiffel Tower position and has come up with a quirkier way to enjoy it – by adding a 69 to the mix.

If you’ve got a foursome and not a threesome, this position is definitely a fun one to try that will make sure everyone’s pleasure dials are turned riiiight up.

So, how do you do it? Easy.

Eiffel Tower Foursome

Remember in the above threesome where there was someone who was the ‘foundation’ of the sex tower? Well, all you need to do is put your fourth person underneath them in a 69-position, and then both of the foundation blocks will be getting anal (or vaginal) at the same time.

Now, don’t let the quick addition of a fourth person fool you. Making this a foursome isn’t as practical as the 3-piece tower and you will all need to be quite flexible.

It isn’t for the faint-hearted, but if you manage to nail it… it can add even more fun by letting everyone switch up positions so everyone can get to know the tower!

If It Hurts, Change It Up!

Okay, the above can’t be done without some flexibility and stamina… but if anyone feels pain at any time – stop, you are doing it wrong.

No matter if you are trying the classic Eiffel Tower sex position or throwing in the 69 for some fun, the positions shouldn’t hurt anybody involved.

However, if it does happen to be somebody’s first time doing anal, it might take a bit for them to get into, so we don’t recommend the Eiffel Tower being your first soiree into trying the back passage. Instead, try the tower vaginally, or if you want to get even kinkier, you could even add a sex toy in here!

Remember, you should all be able to have great sex doing this position – with a bit of effort, it can turn into an amazing sexual experience for everyone.

Bite the Bullet and Buy a Ticket to the Tower

The key to really enjoying the Eiffel tower sex position is being comfortable with your partners and choosing them carefully. Once you’ve picked out the two (or three) people you are going to share this crazy ride with, remember to have fun and to not take the whole thing too seriously!

Have a laugh, get comfortable and give it some time to pay off (it will trust us). Bon Voyage!
