This is from the August 2005 issue of the National Geographic: 'Working with Russian space officials, a private firm plans to sell a flyby trip to the moon. Price per passenger: 100 million dollars (U.S.). If the plan takes off, two space tourists and their pilot would spend 10 to 21 days crammed in a passenger car-size Soyuz space module..........Organizers say the trip could launch in three to four years. {2008/09}. Citizen astronauts able and willing to cover the sky-high cost of the spaceflight would first have to undergo six to eight months of extensive training and mission preparation. '

The Apollo project spent $25 billion to let 12 men walk on the Moon. Adjusted for inflation that is well over $100 billion today.
Space Adventures, the same company that sent several tourists to the international space station, is trying to arrange an orbital trip around the Moon for $100 million per person in a Russian Soyuz. They would not land or get to walk on the Moon though.

Not sure to the moon but Richard Branson has something going on where he's planning to take a plane (to be desinged and built) into space and then back at £200,000 a shot.
I suppose anyone could design, build and fly a ship to the moon and you would be in charge of your own expenditure.
