Since Betelgeuse is a nearby star (compared to the size of the galaxy, that is), you can assume that it takes about the same time as our Solar System to orbit the galaxy - approximately 240 million years.

How long does it take Rigel and Betelgeuse to orbit each other?
Rigel and Betelgeuse don't orbit each other. They are hundreds of light-years away from each other.
How long would it take to get to Betelgeuse?
No one really knows, because no one has ever been to Betelgeuse. It would take much more time than getting to Pluto.
What does the milky way galaxy orbit and how long does it take?
The Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy are the two giants in our local group. These two galaxies will collide, but neither one can be said to orbit the other. In some instances smaller galaxies might "orbit" a giant cluster, with periods measured in billions of years. Galaxies in general do not orbit anything. Instead they are all simply spreading further and further apart as the universe expands.

Where in the galaxy is the sun located and how long does it take the sun to orbit its galaxy?
The Sun - and the Solar System - are about 26,000 light-years from the Milky Way's center. It takes an estimated 225 million years to go once around the galaxy.

It takes the sun to complete one orbit (a galactic year) of our home galaxy: 226 million years
How long would it take to get to Betelgeuse?
No one really knows, because no one has ever been to Betelgeuse. It would take much more time than getting to Pluto.
How long does it take a galaxy to make one full rotation?
millions of years, but it varies with location is the galaxy. for example in the milky way our solar system orbits once every 225 million years but stars further out orbit slower and those further in orbit faster.
