The water pump is easy, but usually you would do the timing belt and perhaps the idler and tensioner at the same time you do the pump. Bottom line: if you have the capability to do the timing belt the water pump will be a cinch. Basically you just drain the coolant, remove the timing belt and unbolt the water pump. You may also have to wedge the engine over just a bit to give the pump clearance to come out.
