Since 1997, SteadyJoy has designed, led, directed, planned and hosted tours and events in New York City (and Chicago, Boston, DC area and Philadelphia).

The company name "SteadyJoy" was derived from the phrase "I will live in a steady joy."

The phrase comes from a poem by Donald Hall in his poetry book The Happy Man and his poem "Mr. Wakeville on Interstate 90." In 2006, Donald Hall was named Poet Laureate of the USA.


WE ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT NYC

Our passions are New York City and its entertainment, arts, dining, theatre, live events, tours, sightseeing, travel and anything associated with having a good time, enjoying the Big Apple.

On all SteadyJoy guided or self-guided tours and at our special events, you and your group will come to love the sights, sounds, events, activities and even the smells and the pace of New York City as much as we do.


BEST DEAL

Your entire trip includes, as a bonus, a personalized, pocket-sized guidebook. We call it a PorTOURble.

Your trip will usually cost less than with other tour operators and companies.

You have full control over everything you see and do and pay.

All of our guides, planners and associates are licensed, passionate New Yorkers who live here.

You get your choices of events, attractions, Broadway shows and dining spots.


HOW WE WORK TOGETHER

On self-guided SteadyJoy tours, you receive a PorTOURble to carry along with you as you would a guidebook--in your hand, in your pocket or purse--but one that is completely customized and personalized for you and your group.

Your always-up-to-date PorTOURble “tour guide” has current information about specialty tours, restaurants, sights, arts, Broadway and off-Broadway theatre, themed and neighborhood tours, directions, transportation information, city information, live events and activities associated with a specific tours and events, and special requests made by the guests. It contains: photographs, reviews, notes, maps, descriptions, information, tips, locations, hours, etc.
