At the fastest current spacecraft speed (other than re-entry from the Moon), which is about 60000 km/hr, it would take at least 100 days to reach Mercury, depending on its position in its orbit. It could take as long as 120 days.
Most space probes do not accelerate constantly, but use planetary gravity effects to speed up or slow down, which involves long, complex orbits taking a year or more. In this case, a spacecraft actually has to decelerate from the Earth's orbital speed (about 107,000 km/hr) to reach Venus or Mercury.

How long does it take to get to mercury by rocket?
It takes about 6-6.5 months to travel to Mercury by rocket, depending on the alignment of the planets and the speed of the rocket. The average distance between Earth and Mercury is about 77 million kilometers.
If a rocket left Pluto traveling 1000 mph how long would it take to reach the Sun?
450 years.
How long will it take to land on mercury?
Mariner 10 was a space probe launched in November 1973, which flew by Venus and onto mercury. It took about 5 months to get to mercury back then. Maybe with a faster rocket and more modern technology, a trip to mercury might be around 3 months long.
How long will it take go from earth to mucury?
If the earth was at its closest point to Mercury it would take over a year for a rocket to reach it. It is about three days to the moon and two years to mars. Mr Google will tell you exactly how long it is to Murcury in a rocket.
