There were 6 manned moon landings. One more mission (Apollo 13) was intended to be a manned landing, but malfunctioned and returned to Earth after rounding the Moon without landing. Apollo 10 didn't actually land, but got within a few miles of the lunar surface. Apollo 8 also went "to" the Moon in the sense that it orbited the Moon before returning to Earth.

That's 9 manned missions that made it at least as far as lunar orbit (Apollo missions 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17). "Apollo 18" is just a cheesy Horror movie with no basis in fact, and Apollo 9 was an equipment test performed in Earth orbit.

There have been a lot of unmanned probes sent as well.
