What's the difference between this and Travis ci ?

It was the very first question in my head during reading about Actions.

Even more, I'm pretty sure that under the hood Github Actions uses at least some of Travi's infrastructure/components.

Great question! I'm not familiar with all the ins and outs of Travis CI, but you can accomplish much of the same thing with both -- automating your software development lifecycle from build, test, package, release, publish, to deployment. One of the arguments for GitHub Actions vs something like a Travis CI or Circle CI is having the automated process defined and versioned right alongside your code.
