How long does it take to get to the Mun and back?

It depends on the trajectory and velocity but the one way trip from LKO to Mun encounter can take from less than 4 hours to more than 6 hours (a Kerbin day).

Return trip about the same.

Scott Manley did some fun speed run to the Mun and back in this Youtube video. He gets something like an hour

Assuming a ballistic transfer from 70km to 11.4 Mm and back, the round trip takes 2d, 2h, 48m, 31.3s.

Anything you do prior to the transfer and while in the Mun's SoI adds to that time.

Best,
