The Book of Exodus tells us that the Israelites travelled from Egypt to the Promised Land, but does not provide sufficient detail to establish the length of this journey. There is considerable debate as to just what route they would have taken.
On the other hand, the respected Israeli archaeologist, Israel Finkelstein says that over ninety per cent of scholars say there never was an Exodus from Egypt as described in The Bible. The Israelites did not actually travel from Egypt to the Promised Land.

What is distance the Israelites traveled from canaan to Egypt?
The trip from Canaan to Egypt was short and direct, and members of Jacob's family did it several times. Beersheva to Cairo, or wherever the seat of power was at that time, along the trading route, may have been less than 250 miles ... a week's travel. It was on the way back that the route taken was less direct, for a variety of reasons.

How many miles did Joseph and Mary travel from Bethlehem to Egypt?
8000 km 8000km = in miles? 8000km is about 5000 miles. However that's got nothing to do with how long the Holy family's Flight to Egypt was. Their travels were from Bethlehem - just a few miles south of Jeruselem - to some unnamed location in Egypt. The largest city in Egypt at that time would be Alexandria. Just using a ruler on the map, the distance between these two cities appears to be about 320 miles (512km). They may have cut a few dozen miles off their trip by stopping at some closer town in Egypt, but on the other hand, I'm sure they had to travel on roads not nearly as straight as my as-the-bird-flies measurement. So, my best guess would be 300-350 miles. An extremely long trip in those days.
