It takes such a long time as Pluto is so far from the sun. Not only is its angular velocity very low compared to planets further in, but it also has to travel much further to complete one revolution of the sun.

Which planet would take longer to travel around the sun?

This depends on whether you count Pluto as a planet or not. If you don't, then Neptune has the longest orbit period (nearly 165 Earth years). If you do, then Pluto has a orbit period of 248.1 years. If you count Pluto, you might also count Sedna which takes 12,050 years. Sedna is 2/3 the size of Pluto and it's 960 times as far from the Sun as the Earth.
