What would you buy if you were me, looking for better point and shoot results?
If you are already familiar with (and like) Canon then I'd get one of the Powershots.
Just figure out how much you're willing to spend, how small you want the camera to be, and what features are important to you (finder or display-only, articulating screen on back or not, wifi..) and pick a model that has what you want, don't overthink it too much.

I'm looking to buy a compact camera to use on chilled rides/tours instead of my phone camera which I'm always disappointed with.
A quick glance and I'm down a rabbit hole of Canon model numbers.
G7 is better than G9, there's I, II and III versions. There's a Richoh with no zoom lens that I presume would be really fast to use and more rugged. There's Olympus Tough TG-6 which is actually 'rugged'.
I used to own a Powershot G3 and I still have a collection of Canon DSLRs so I'm quite fond on Canon stuff in general and would lean that way over most other things unless there was a compelling argument to go another way. I hate Nikon.
