Both "tidy" and "neat" mean arranging things in order. "Tidy" has more word forms comparing to "neat". "Tidy" can be used as an adjective and a verb; while "neat" is usually an adjective. Here are some examples:
Tidy (adj) - Your table is very clean and tidy.
Tidy (noun) - I finally have time to tidy my room.
Neat (adj) - The latest magazines are in the neat pile.
A fun fact for you: Neat can also means good in informal conversation. Here are some examples:
1. I took an English on italki and the teacher was neat!
2. "How's your day?"
"I went to a concert with my friends and I took a selfie with some celebrities!"
"Neat!"

They mean the same thing. Also, both tidy and neat can be used to describe a person. "She is a tidy person." or "He is a neat person." But tidy is an action and neat is not. "I will tidy up my bedroom." Neat can not be used in the same way.

They are synonymous. Meaning, they mean the same.
