Mr Trump and his vice presidential nominee Mike Pence met with local Republican leaders and emergency officials, and toured areas that just a few days ago were inundated with several feet of water.
Mr Obama meanwhile announced he would head to Louisiana on Tuesday (local time), after days of criticism from some in the southern state for not visiting during the week-long ordeal, which culminated with the Republican candidate on the ground and the president still on vacation.
"Honestly, Obama ought to get off the golf course and get down there," Mr Trump said at a campaign rally later in the day in Michigan, alluding to the President's Wednesday golf game.
