You can use CLLocation to calculate the distance between two locations. Something like,

CLLocationDistance meters = [newLocation distanceFromLocation:oldLocation];

Once you calculated the distance, then you can easily calculate the travel time by using the speed distance time formula

i.e., speed = distance / time

since you know the distance and if you assume the speed, you can calculate time taken for the travel as

time = distance / speed

Checkout this link to use Google Maps API to calculate the time travel.
