Clues to look for
Cars drive on the left. Red soil, savanna, green highlands and busy matatu minibuses.
Driving side
Cars in Kenya drive on the left. So do Mauritius, Seychelles, Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia and Zimbabwe, which are also in East Africa. Fewer than a quarter of countries drive on the left, so spotting it narrows things down a lot.
Countries it's easy to confuse with Kenya
If you guess a neighbour of Kenya you still score 2 points, and any other country in East Africa scores 1 point.
