Tails itself has docs on how you can use it, Guix doesn't matter in that
case.
For Tor Browser, your best bets are containers of some sort. I have
Arch and Debian chroots for running software that Guix can't run yet.
Maybe it has a Flatpak? I think there might be some info on the mailing
list about running it, I know I've seen others discuss it.
Personally, I use Tails from a USB stick, it's the most secure of all
the alternatives.
