      Depends what you are travelling in I guess….it took Apollo 11 (the one carrying Neil Armstrong for the first moon landing) 3 days- but I am not sure if they did any sight-seeing on the way.

      depends how you travel

      its about 238, 857 miles so driving at 60 miles an hour by car thats 165 days driving solidly 24hrs a day
