Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TravelManía at none against Sightseeing Experience's 10. TravelManía also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 4 months). Sightseeing Experience's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
