If your confident and have the tools to change a timing belt then you'll do fine 
I found i had to take the pullies and rear cambelt cover off to see the water pump etch line though

Alternator belt & tensioner off, bottom pulley off, cambelt cover off, cambelt off, camshaft sensor off, cam pullies off, idler pully off (just 1), cambelt rear cover off, water pump out.
Reassemble and re-time using a new belt unless its nearly new already. make a point of aligning the water pump as per haynes manual, worth checking the condition of the tensioner and idler pullies aswell while its in bits.
Lovely job
