I have...
The ones I have toured are in Mexico, but let me tell you they are incredible!
One is called "El sotano de las Golondrinas" in San Luis Potosi, México... it has 512 meters deep, a 55 meters diameter mouth and the only way to get to the bottom is by free fall with a parachute... if you have the time and money, and like cave touring, I would reccomend this one 100%!!!
The othe ones are minor caves, one is called Guiengola Caves, in Oaxaca...these caves are under a piramid the Zapotec used to make some rituals in the caves, and if you are very lucky you can find some artifacts in the cave, unfortunately, if you find something you have to give it to the antropological authorities on site, since it is a major felony to hide archeological evidence from them, and you don't get any rewrd... =(, the last one I want to talk about are called "Las Grutas de Cacahuamilpa" in the state of Hidalgo, nice caves, underground river and a lot of adventure... Below you'll find some links to these sites....
Cheers!

1) Wee Jasper caves, near Canberra, Australia. Better than Jenolan (my friend tells me); the guide was super.
2) Te Ana-au on Lake Te Anau, New Zealand. Terrific, since you tour in a boat and see the little glow worms.
3) Waitomo, New Zealand. Also has glow worms, but not as up-close-and-personal as Te Ana-au's. Over-touristy place.
4) The Lurgrotte in Peggau, Austria. The attraction here (apart from the cave formations themselves) is the bats. Probably the largest cave I've been that is so well-preserved (not touristy). Also had a superb guide, aber man muss Deutsch verstehen. ;-)

Southern Indiana a lot of caves, My ex Husband was a cave rescue spelunker. I use to hate the late night phone calls were we all had to get up and go set up everything. i always thought it was dangerous but he loved it. It was a weird group of people that we use to hang with that liked repelling into a dark deep cave. Not for me.

Yeah I was in the Bridal Caves in the Ozarks that was cool. And in Kansas I was in the storage caves in a semi. That was weird. You pull up and they give you a map and you drive underground and unload your truck.

Yes, but I dont remember what they were called. It was far in the country in Czech Republic. We spent around . . four hours in the caves, learning about the different rocks & squeezed through little holes. It was awesome, really pushed me out of my comfort zone.

I went to Howe Caverns in upstate New York. It was pretty cool, it had a lot of minerals and crystals, and lots of low ceilings. It was an awesome experience.
