The first Apollo mission to go to the Moon just orbited and returned. This was the Apollo 8 mission by astronauts Frank Borman, James Lovell, and William Anders. Lovell was later commander on Apollo 13, which due to an accident did not land on the Moon.

The first mission to LAND on the Moon was Apollo 11. Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin were the first men to walk on the Moon. Command module astronaut Michael Collins remained in lunar orbit.

(*Armstrong's famous quote - "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.")

The crew of Apollo 8 were the first men to travel to the moon. They reached lunar orbit on December 24, 1968. They orbited the moon 10 times before returning to earth on Christmas Day. They splashed down in the Pacific Ocean 3 days later. The crew consisted of Frank Borman (Commander), Jim Lovell (Command Module Pilot), and Wiliam Anders (Lunar Module Pilot). Borman and Lovell flew together previously on the Gemini 7 mission whch spent a record 14 days in space. Apollo 8 was the only flight for Anders. Both he and Borman retired after Apollo 8. Lovell went on to command the ill-fated Apollo 13 mission. He was supposed to land on the moon, but an oxygen tank exploded on the way to the moon. The crew splashed down 4 days later with about 2 hours of oxygen remaining in their spacecraft.
