The Sun doesn't travel to Earth. What travels to Earth is the light from the Sun. This takes about 8m 20s.
It take's about eight minutes for sun to reach earth
The closest Saturn can be to earth is at the moment when both planets are lined upon the same side of the sun. Then, the distance is 797.8 million miles. Light and radiotake 71.4 minutes to cover that distance.The farthest Saturn can be from earth is at the moment when both planets are lined upon opposite sides of the sun. Then, the distance is 983.8 million miles. Light and radiotake 88 minutes to cover that distance.
It takes a long time to get to the surface of the Sun. I have read various estimates, but I think, on average, it takes about 40,000 years. It only takes a few minutes to reach Earth from the Sun's surface. It takes over a million years because of size, density and atomic reactions. Then only eight and a third minutes to reach the Earth.
It takes right around eight minutes for sunlight to reach earth.
It changes a little bit during the year, because the earth's distance from the sun changes slightly. On the average, the easiest number to remember ... and pretty accurate too ... is 499 seconds. That's 8minutes 19seconds.
Light energy in the form of photons, which travel at the speed of Light [298,000 km/sec] take eight minutes to travel from Sol to Earth. Is this the Answer that you are looking for?
About eight minutes for the sun's light to reach the earth, if that's what you're asking...
light from the sun
Earth's distance from the Sun varies between about 147 and 152 million kilometers. Given the speed of light as 299,792,458 m/sec and the Sun's radius of 696,000 km, this makes the time taken for the journey (from the Sun's surface to the Earth's) between 8.14 and 8.42 minutes. On an average, it is about 8.28 minutes or 8 minutes and 17 seconds.
150 million kilometers divided by the speed of light (300,000 kilometers per second) is about 8 minutes and 20 seconds.
It radiates outwards in all directions at about 300,000 kilometres per second. A tiny percentage of that light reaches our earth about eight minutes after leaving the sun.
Eight minutes

The Earth is eight light-minutes away from the Sun.

If you mean light from the Sun, then it takes eight minutes for the light to reach the Earth.
