Can self-employed travelers provide free travel services?

This is not allowed in our country. Reason: According to the relevant laws and regulations of our country, individuals or organizations that provide tourism services need to provide industry licenses. For example, to operate all legal travel agencies, they need to apply for a travel agency business license. If individuals want to use their own skills to provide independent travel services to tourists, they can rely on certain travel agencies or travel service platforms that are qualified to provide travel services, but they must also be legally registered first. For example, the country has permitted the liberalization of the tour guide profession.
