Beginner friendly: Moderate

Starting as a tour guide can be quite easy, with a moderate level of effort. Most people can get started with some time, research, and dedication. Online resources like Reddit and YouTube offer valuable insights and tips for beginners. Setting up costs range from minimal to moderate, depending on the location and equipment needed. Profit can be achieved within 2 weeks of starting, especially if the tour guide is proactive in marketing and networking. I'd rate it a 3 because while it requires effort and learning, it is definitely doable for the average person.
