Does anybody know how long does it take to get from Narita Airport to Ageo City in Saitama?
Thanks
About two hours.
See train timetables on Hyperdia:

There are buses to Saitama (and you could take a bus to, say, Omiya then change to the train) but that would be slower.

Thanks for the quick reply. I was hoping to visit a distant relative in Ageo during a 8 hour layover but I think 2 hours one way cuts too close for me.
Thank you for the info.

You could take another option.
Heli Express between NRT and Kawajima AP, Saitama. It takes 25 min. one way between the 2 points and operates nearly on demand.
From Kawajima to Ageo city center, it is half-an-hour drive.

The drawback is that this cost 40000 JPY OW.....
