You can book online from sofia to budapest to vienna to germany on
raileurope.com
but they charge a booking fee.
The train from istanbul, look in the city for any travel agency and ask. I;m sure lots of them can book train tickets at least from Turkey to Bulgaria. Just try to get it the day you arrive in Istanbul, and preferably a day or 2 in advance.
You could buy a 4 country Eurail Select Pass, for about $450
including Bulgaria/Serbia (count as one), Hungary, Austria and Germany (5 days in 2 months)
You’d have to pay extra to go through Czechy. It’s about $62 extra to cross CZ from austria to Prag, then to germany.
Also check out the Balkan flexipass that includes Turkey, greece, Bulg, Serbia, Romania for cheap.
Then you could buy a Germany Austria pass and pay separate for CZ and Hungary.
