It has been a while since I setup my wireguard server, if you host it on a linux system It can be easy as:
Install wireguard on your system
generate private/public key
create a wireguard config file with iptables rules
net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 on your server (yeah very important part)
open the wireguard UDP port on your router
configure clients
The first time you delve into, it can be Intimidating (at that time I was a total CLI/linux noob) if you are a beginner, but I think you will easily find your way :)
This tutorial seems rather complete and easy to follow with comments. Also, if you didn’t know, do not blindly copy/past the commands from the web directly in your CLI.

Disable that port forwarding on your router, and install a wireguard server and forward that port only.
It’s free and works like a charm. It’s simple and elegant, and I can access all my containers from everywhere in the world!
Dunno your work policies, and what you’re allowed to setup or not, but this is the “best way” I know.
Any guide you suggest? I don’t speak very well “Linux” but I can follow procedures and build on that
