If its your first time, it'll take about an a hour for the fronts and two hours for the rear. The rear discs are a bit more complicated and you need good pliers and strength to stretch springs and stuff.

Off the top of my head you will need a medium sized adjustable spanner, 10mm allen key bit, and i think thats it.
