My choice would be the G5X (in my case G1xIII).

I also (still) own a RX100vII, and its a great camera, but for my taste the buttons are to small. The Canon feels more like a camera for me and I enjoy more using it.

If you focus more on photography and dont mind carrying a bigger bag or backpack...maybe bring the Canon.

I also have the G5XII and I love using that little camera.  I have the RX100V and stopped using it because of small button and horrible menu.  Every camera has slight different menue and Canon's are not an exception.   However, the Sony is just more different and this makes hard to get the shot if things go wrong.  I was pleased with the IQ of both cameras. The Sony may be slightly sharper in the corners at the very long end, but this is not enough to compensate for what is in my hands a horrible shooting experience.  If the pictures are important enough to me I will bring the R5, the trilogy of f2.8 lenses and a flash in addition to the G5XII.  For for less priority shooting the G5XII does a good job and is easy to carry all day when sightseeing.
