They are the same, but perhaps is more formal; if I was speaking to a friend I might say 'maybe I will go to the cinema', whereas I would be less likely to say 'perhaos I will go to the cinema. However if I was in a more formal context I might use 'perhaps' instead; for example when writing an academic essay at university I would never use the word 'maybe'.
