We performed optical photometry and spectral observations of the symbiotic stars 4U1954+319 and ZZ CMi. For 4U1954+319 using high-resolution spectra we measure the equivalent widths of diffuse interstellar bands and estimate the interstellar reddening E(B-V)=0.83 +/- 0.09. Using GAIA distances and our photometry, we find (1) absolute V band magnitude of 4U1954+319 M_V=-5.23 +/- 0.08 and that the mass donor is a supergiant of luminosity class Ib, and (2) for ZZ CMi M_V=-0.27 +/- 0.2 and that the mass donor is a giant of luminosity class III.
