Program for next august

Hi,
In august me and my family would like to spend a couple of weeks in London.
We have thoght it could be a good experience to rent a flat and try to live like a londoners.
I start to flip some website, like homeaway airbnb but, if some of you have a good tip i'm all ears.
Bye

Did you mean to say "I started to flip through some websites" ?  In the US we just usually say "I checked out some websites" or "I've started to look at several websites"..  hope that helps!
