How many Apollo missions landed people on the moon?
6 total. Apollo 11,12,14,15,16,17 Apollo 8, 10, 13 orbited the moon. Apollo 9 Was an Earth orbit test flight of docking and operating the lunar Module in space. All of these were Saturn V Manned launches. Saturn 1b manned apollo flights were Apollo 7, Skylab 2, 3, 4, and the Apollo Soyuz Test Project.
Was the Apollo 6 mission successful?
While technically successful (all the Apollo missions except 1 and 13 were successful), Apollo 6 was not an actual flight. After Apollo 1, all missions until 7 were hardware test flights and were not officially numbered. Manned flights go from 1 (which was lost to fire) directly to Apollo 7, which saw three men orbit the Earth in the Command Module.
When was the last manned space flight to the moon?
Apollo 17 was the eleventh manned space mission in the NASA Apollo program.

The mission was launched at 12:33 a.m. EST on December 7, 1972, and concluded on December 19. It remains both the most recent manned moon landing and manned flight beyond low Earth orbit.
